1 out of 5 millennials experience job insecurity in the workplace: Report
In India, one out of every five millennials has experienced job insecurity in their workplace in 2025. A new survey on Millennials in the Workplace 2025, by Great Place to Work, highlights a mixed picture of employee wellbeing, retention, and career growth. The report, which studies employees born between 1981 and 1997, shows that financial well-being remains the biggest challenge, with 1 in 4 millennials struggling. While 83 per cent of millennials report working in a psychologically safe environment, the remaining 17 per cent lack emotional and mental workplace support. The data reveals a clear link between psychological safety and loyalty—millennials who feel safe at work are twice as likely to stay long-term compared to those who don't. 10 emerging cities in India for job hunt Among the sectors, Financial Services and Insurance and Retail lead with the highest psychological safety, with the rating of 84 per cent, followed closely by Health Care, Information Technology, and Manufacturing & Production, each recording 83 per cent, as per the report. These skills are must for 2025 hiring opportunities On the other hand, sectors like Biotechnology and Pharmaceuticals and Professional Services show slightly lower ratings at 80 per cent, making them the least performing sectors in terms of psychological safety. Indian employees aim less stress, flexible jobs over career advancement Despite this, 15 per cent of millennials expressed intent to leave their jobs, with attrition highest in IT and professional services and lowest in retail and manufacturing. Job insecurity also looms large, as 1 in 5 millennials fears layoffs, particularly in biotech, IT, and professional services. The highest levels of intent to leave are seen in Professional Services (18 per cent) and Information Technology (17 per cent), indicating higher workforce mobility in these sectors. Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals matches the overall rate at 15 per cent, while healthcare and financial services and insurance record slightly lower values of 14 per cent each. India's best workplaces in manufacturing sector in 2025 On the positive side, 82 per cent of millennials received upskilling and re-skilling training opportunities in the past year, and 89 per cent were provided with adequate resources and equipment. However, only 47 per cent felt they had strong opportunities to innovate, suggesting organizations need to focus on fostering creativity alongside skilling.

ISRO plans rocket for 75-tonne payload
HYDERABAD: The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is developing a rocket capable of placing a 75,000 kg payload into low earth orbit, ISRO Chairman V Narayanan announced at the 84th convocation of Osmania University on Tuesday. Delivering the convocation address, Narayanan said the proposed rocket would be as tall as a 40-storey building. 'The first launcher, built under the leadership of Dr APJ Abdul Kalam, had a 17-tonne lift-off mass and could place 35 kg in low earth orbit. Today, we are working on a rocket that can carry 75,000 kg,' he said. Narayanan outlined ISRO's upcoming projects, including the launch of a Navigation with Indian Constellation (NaVIC) satellite, the N1 rocket, and the placement of a 6,500 kg communication satellite for the United States into orbit using Indian rockets. The agency also plans to launch the Technology Demonstration Satellite (TDS) and GSAT-7R, a military communication satellite for the Indian Navy, this year. At present, India has 55 satellites in orbit, a number ISRO aims to triple in the next three to four years. Narayanan also referred to the proposed Bharatiya Antariksh Station, a 52-tonne space station expected to be operational by 2035, with initial modules to be launched from 2027. He added that India aims to send an astronaut to the moon and bring them back safely through a fully indigenous mission by 2040.
