While many people might think otherwise, a recent study from the University of Auckland has found that providing on-the-job training is beneficial for both employers and employees, as employees are more likely to find greater job satisfaction and are therefore less likely to quit their jobs.

The study also found that over educated, over qualified and over skilled workers are more likely to stay at their jobs if they have higher job satisfaction.
