US employees are more satisfied than ever, according to a new survey
No job will ever be perfect. But a new survey released by The Conference Board on Thursday found that US employees’ job satisfaction overall is the highest it has ever been since the survey began in 1987. Two key reasons for the record satisfaction level, according to Conference Board researchers: A tighter labor market, which has meant employees can command better pay, benefits and working conditions; and greater flexibility in work arrangements.
6 percentage points higher among those who have found a new job since the pandemic began, compared to those who have not,” Conference Board researchers wrote. The job switchers reported their biggest boosts in satisfaction came from their new job’s training programs, bonus plan, mental health benefits and promotion policy.
