In today's workplace, the employee engagement statistics can seem pretty grim.
Gallup data showsOpens in a new tab only 33% of employees across the U.S. and 23% of employees globally are engaged. Even more alarming, the data shows that, across the U.S., overall employee satisfaction is now on par with pandemic levels - just 18% of U.S. employees are satisfied with their place of work.
Fortunately, there is an antidote - and it's a solution that's well within reach for every senior leader: employee recognition.
Gallup and Workhuman® research has shown that a 10,000-person organization can save up to $16.1M in turnover costs annually by investing in recognition. Additional Gallup and Workhuman research shows recognition improves business outcomes through increased productivity, safer workplaces, and decreased absenteeism.
But not all recognition is created equal.
At Workhuman, we believe in the power of recognition done right. That means building a true culture of recognition, one where employees are empowered with the flexibility and authority to give and receive recognition frequently.
It also means understanding trends and patterns in recognition – like the skills employees are recognized for – by analyzing recognition data. With Human Intelligence™ from Workhuman, the powerful output of AI and recognition data, you can do just that.
