More U.S. Workers Unhappy With Health Benefits, Promotions
Workers least satisfied with on-the-job stress, tangible rewards for their work
by Lymari Morales
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- U.S. workers are more dissatisfied today with their health insurance benefits and their chances for promotion than they were before the global economic collapse. These are the biggest movers since August 2008 on a list of 13 specific job aspects Gallup tracks.
Implications
Workers' perceptions about their jobs deserve as much attention from leaders as the nation's unemployment rate and the need to create new jobs. More than one in four workers remain dissatisfied with the tangible things they get in return for their work, which could affect their willingness to work harder for the good of their employer and the economy more broadly, not to mention their own willingness to spend. At the same time, employers may face an understandable dilemma between hiring new workers and better compensating the ones they have. As such, these measures provide yet another important gauge of the nation's true economic health.
