How to ensure employee engagement in the changing workplace

Published 4 Min Read

It is crucial for employers to foster an environment where employees feel engaged, even as the workplace might look different with remote and hybrid options. Establishing a culture where workers are engaged can help with retention and recruiting, while also providing employees with motivation for their work.

In a remote or hybrid workplace, having a daily conversation can help employees feel connected, both within their teams and the larger organization. 

When people enjoy what they do, everything from productivity to career longevity to their personal mental health improves. In 2023, 65% of employees were happy with their job, and 20% of them were passionate about what they did for a living, according to a survey from career platform Zippia. Respondents cited things like salary, meaning, respect and workplace culture among their reasons for being satisfied with their careers. When people are lucky, they have multiple reasons for being happy in their roles.  

“Of course, great pay is excellent, but making a difference in the lives of our clients and their employees really is my driver,” Lucas Botzen, a tech entrepreneur and CEO of global hiring platform Rivermate told Hafner. “I find great pleasure in knowing that our platform is simplifying global HR processes for businesses when they can work on their core activity while we deal with the intricacies of international employment.”
