In February and March of 2021, 66.7 percent of respondents in the Netherlands said that they find it very unlikely that they would lose their jobs within the next three months which is in a decrease of 3.6 percent compared to June and July of 2020 and an increase of 4.9 percent compared to April and May of 2020. This shows that people feel a higher level of security about their job in February and March of 2021 than in April and May of 2020 but less secure than in June and July of 2020. Whilst 4.2 and 3.1 percent of respondents said that they find it very likely and rather likely that they would lose their job in the next three months in April and May of 2020 respectively, this was reduced to a mere 1.2 and 1.6 percent in February and March of 2021, showing that respondents feel significantly more secure about their job than before.
