Employee turnover will rise next year, according to a new survey of U.S. workers released by Right Management, the outplacement and consulting division of Manpower Inc. (NYSE: MAN).

Workers were asked: "Do you plan to pursue new jobs opportunities as the economy improves in 2010?" In response, 60% of workers said yes. Another 21% said that maybe they would seek a new job and that they have begun networking. Six percent said it's not likely they will leave, and 13% said they intend to stay.

"Employees are clearly expressing their pent up frustration with how they have been treated through the downturn," said Douglas Matthews, president and chief operating officer at Right Management. "While employers may have taken the necessary steps to streamline operations to remain viable, it appears many employees may have felt neglected in the process."

The survey questioned 904 employees in North America.
