Introduction to career cushioning and the benefits of having a plan B
Welcome to foHRsight – a podcast about making work better brought to you by future foHRward.
Another buzz phrase makes its way in to the work vernacular – career cushioning! We saw this one popping up in a few articles so thought it would be a good one to delve in to.
Essentially it means having a plan B to help keep yourself employable in a turbulent employment market. Of course that has implications for companies who are working hard to hold on to their top talent … but as we conclude it seems a sensible strategy for individuals to take!

You’ll also hear us provide us debate our respective POV on the most common term of 2022 – quiet quitting!
Here is a link to the podcast Brave New Work that Mark references in his feelgood - https://www.bravenewwork.com/podcast. Well worth the listen!
