Working Not Working is calling on creative companies to prioritize their people as a competitive advantage
Working Not Working呼籲有創意的公司將人員優先考慮作爲競爭優勢。
NEW YORK, Aug. 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Today, Working Not Working Inc., a Fiverr company (NYSE: FVRR) and the leading platform for creative talent discovery, released the top findings from its first ever (un)Happiness Survey to better understand how creatives are really feeling about their jobs at a time when the industry is focused on adopting new technologies and optimizing literally everything except their people. The report, which features survey responses from nearly 1,000 full-time creative professionals across the Working Not Working network, highlights a startling lack of employer investment in the key areas that matter to employees: opportunities, company culture, professional development, perceived value, and flexibility. As a result, over half of the creative workforce is now looking to exit their full-time positions within the next year, with over 40% of those surveyed intending to do so in the next six months.
2024年8月6日,全球新聞社——今天, Working Not Working Inc.,Fiverr公司(NYSE:FVRR)旗下的領先創意人才發掘平台,發佈了其首份「(不)幸福調查」報告,以更好地了解創意從業人員對於其工作的真實感受,特別是在行業專注於採用新技術並優化幾乎所有事物的當下。此報告收集了覆蓋Working Not Working網絡下近1,000名全職創意專業人員的問卷調查結果,突顯出僱主在對員工最爲重要的若干領域進行投資方面存在驚人的不足:機會、公司文化、專業發展、感知價值和靈活性。結果,超過一半的創意工作者正在計劃在下一年內辭去全職工作,其中超過40%的調查對象打算在未來6個月內這樣做。Fiverr旗下的知名平台——創意人才發現領域的領先平台(NYSE: FVRR)發佈了其首個最新研究的具體結果。 這些發現還與Forrester的研究結果相呼應,Forrester的研究結果詳細介紹了企業界正在發生的員工體驗衰退危機,而各機構則在削減對於工作、多元包容、員工健康計劃等方面的投資和資源。Working Not Working的調查突顯出員工的痛點問題(通常被認爲是孤立的問題)已經疊加在一起,從而驅使創意工作者即使在不確定時期也在尋求新的機會。其中一些最令人驚訝的結果包括: 所有年齡、性別和工作地點的全職員工都有一種介於漠不關心和痛苦之間的感受:75%的人報告了負面的幸福感受,情緒層次涵蓋了「很糟」到「非常糟」;這種不幸感和被低估的感覺以一個令人擔憂的速度影響着員工的留存率,56%的受訪者表示他們打算在未來一年內離開當前的全職職位;84%的受訪者報告了對於僱主的負面個人價值感受,而驚人的97%的員工感到領導只是模糊地表達了對於他們職業發展方向的看法。
"There was such an awakening of workers rethinking their life priorities and purpose post-COVID – especially in the creative industry. So I've been shocked at how quickly companies ignored those revelations to force fit their workforce into misaligned company objectives," said Working Not Working Co-founder & CEO Justin Gignac. "We initially sent this out as the Happiness Survey, but the results quickly dictated we rename it. In a time when our humanity and creativity should be doubled down on as a key differentiator, too many businesses that rely on creativity have left their employees feeling like cogs: burned out, underutilized, and underappreciated. The solution is obvious: employees want to feel seen, valued and understood. They want opportunities that align with their passions. They want to make great work with a company and colleagues they believe in. And they want to be treated like humans, not headcount."
員工正在採取自己的行動來在工作之餘尋找替代就業機會:超過65%的受訪者正在擔任他們全職僱主以外的自由職業者;超過一半的受訪者表示,他們當前的僱主並不知道他們的自由職業工作並且他們沒有意向告知僱主。
The findings follow research from Forrester that details the ongoing Employee Experience Recession crisis across the corporate world, with organizations slashing investments and resources on jobs, DEIB programs, and employee wellness initiatives. Working Not Working's survey highlights how employee pain points – often dismissed as isolated issues – have now compounded in a way that's driving creatives to seek out new opportunities, even during times of uncertainty. Some of the most surprising results include:
企業們有機會扭轉員工的情緒和生產力,方法不限於加薪,還包括致力於公司文化:根據數據,更堅定、更更新的對於關鍵的公司驅動因素的承諾可以將員工任期增加超過9個月;提高薪資可以將員工留任時間延長0.8個月,並增加項目機會超過2.5個月;工作時間和工作地點上的靈活性可以將員工留任時間增加超過3個月。 Forrester的研究結果 DEI(多元包容感、平等和包容感)
