It’s a big price for any organisation to pay. According to research by Oxford Economics and Unum<\/a>, the average cost of turnover per employee is over £30,000<\/span><\/span>! It’s also a big blow to company morale, as the remaining team often loses a friend and has to pick up the work slack. Nevermind the time involved in hunting for new talent, and then getting them up to speed.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Of the 2054 people we surveyed, 33% said they are dissatisfied or very dissatisfied with their jobs. That's even more impactful when compared to last year's insights which revealed only 1 in 5 was dissatisfied.<\/p>\n And why is this so important? Because when people are satisfied with their jobs, it’s better for everyone. Obviously for the employees themselves, but also the organisation. The London School of Economics published a study in 2019<\/a> that showed direct correlation between worker satisfaction and business productivity across all counts including profitability, employee productivity, and even customer retention.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n The good news is that just because this is what people are thinking and feeling, doesn't necessarily mean they're going to act on it right away. You haven't suddenly found yourself in an impossible situation – a single person holding all of the frayed threads of the business together. In fact, if you're reading this you're likely in a better position than many other people out there. You're actively interested in what your colleagues are thinking and feeling… and now you know, you're in a good place to start doing something about it.<\/p>\n![\"49%](\"\/blog\/img\/tir_blog_callout2_v1.jpg?language_id=1\")
