The High Cost of Unhappy Employees

As companies search for ways to build a happier work environment, many HR departments are paying more attention to the screening process, making sure that new hires will fit into the company culture. In the mean time, it doesn’t take an infographic to figure out that employees need to feel appreciated – in a Workforce Mood Tracker survey, 69 percent of employees have said that they’ll work harder for a company that recognizes their achievements. Research shows that engaged employees come up with more innovative ideas, create the most new business, and have the most entrepreneurial energy. Engaded employees are 87% less likely to leave the organization than the disengaged. One solution is to screen all new hires for company culture fit. Another good solution is to frequently recognize employees for their accomplishments - no matter how big or small. Assessing culture fit doesn't have to be a costly and time-consuming endeavor.
