Only 31% of employees say they are engaged, enthusiastic and energized by their work, according to an Oct. 24 report by Gartner, Inc.
Workers who report being energized and excited about their work are 31% more likely to stay at their organization, according to the report. In addition, these workers are 31% more likely to go above and beyond, and they contribute 15% more.
“Despite organizations making investments in engaging their employees, our research shows that almost 70% don’t feel as engaged as they should be and aren’t feeling a meaningful connection to their job,” Keyia Burton, senior principal and advisory in the Gartner HR practice, said in a statement.
