WorkStep’s looks at the top factors contributing to employee dissatisfaction, as well as other key themes: The Great Resignation is far from over. Aside from more than three-quarters of respondents saying they plan to explore a new role, the data also found: 46% have been in their current roles for less than one year 54% have switched jobs in the past year Despite record high turnover, management teams rarely, if ever, ask for feedback from their frontline supply chain workforce. 41% of respondents said management never seeks feedback 8% say they’re asked to provide feedback once a year For the employees that get to provide feedback, 70% say their voices aren’t being heard. CEO and co-founder of WorkStep founded WorkStep to help companies empower their frontline workers.
