If you’re feeling that morale is running a little low around the office this New Year, you’re not alone.
Almost 25 percent of U.S. employers say morale among workers at their companies is low, according to a survey released by CareerBuilder. "Low morale levels are an unfortunate side effect of this recession," says Jason Ferrara, vice president for the company. Employees reported:
• Having trouble staying motivated at work in the last year
• Not feeling loyal to their employer
• High stress levels and increased work levels in the last 6 months
To give employees a much needed boost Ferrara suggests taking measures to help address negative workplace sentiment and motivate employees. Whether you step-up communication, offer more employee recognition programs, or provide flexible work opportunities—the time to act and engage your employees is now.
