Survey finds employees who perceive their workplace policies as not inclusive are twice as likely to be actively looking for new employment opportunities elsewhere
HOUSTON, TX, February 09, 2024 /24-7PressRelease/ — HRbrain.ai, a leader in AI-powered HR solutions, today announced the release of significant findings from a comprehensive study on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) and pay equity across workplaces in the United States. Extracted from a larger global analysis that spans North America and Europe, this report aims to spotlight the urgent need for American companies to advance their DE&I efforts and rectify pay equity disparities, fostering a more inclusive, productive, and forward-thinking corporate culture. The full report is available for free at StateOfWorkToday.com
Key Findings:
1. Only 42% of American employees believe their company effectively implements DE&I policies, indicating a significant disconnect between policy and practice.
2. 51% of the workforce weighs a company’s commitment to DE&I heavily in their job acceptance decisions, highlighting DE&I’s essential role in attracting talent.
3. A mere 42% of American employees feel their companies’ internal communications are unbiased and inclusive, underscoring the critical need for transparency and inclusivity in internal messaging to foster a culture of trust and belonging.
4. Furthermore, 58% of American employees report not feeling their voices are heard within the workplace, pointing to a significant area for improvement in communication and inclusivity.
5. 30% of American workers are actively looking for a new job outside the company.
Employees who perceive their workplace policies as not inclusive are twice as likely to be actively looking for new employment opportunities elsewhere. This statistic underscores the importance of not only establishing DE&I policies but ensuring they are tangibly felt and beneficial to the workforce, impacting both employee satisfaction and retention significantly.
Tim Glowa, CEO and Founder of HRbrain.ai, asserts, “The insights from our comprehensive study serve as a clarion call for HR leaders and executives across the United States. The path forward involves a committed, actionable approach to DE&I that transcends mere policy to affect real change within the organizational culture.
