Study – Nearly half of Americans have quit a job due to lack of recognition
People often associate job satisfaction with a fair paycheck. While compensation is an important way to make employees feel valued, recognition and a positive work culture is essential for retention according to a new study.
Quality Logo Products surveyed 1,400 American workers to see whether they currently feel valued at work and how much being valued impacts their job performance.
Findings:
- A majority of employees (83%) say they feel recognized at work.
- 1-in-5 said their boss had shown appreciation for their work within the last week, and 22% said this happened a few times a week.
- Verbal and digital thanks are the most common forms of recognition, but pay increases and bonuses are the most desired.
- 49% of employees said they’d quit a job because of lack of recognition.
Take a look at the full report.
