One in five health care workers will leave their job this year, according to a CareerBuilder.com survey. Some other interesting statistics from the survey are as follows:

In regards to health care workers in 2006,

17% were dissatisfied with their jobs

26% did not receive a raise

71% did not earn a bonus

23% felt they deserved a promotion and did not receive one
