How often do your employees call out sick? If it seems the standard office bug just won’t go away, you may have an issue with employee morale on your hands. If your team struggles to complete tasks and seem barely present in meetings, it’s time to take action to increase their engagement at work.
This isn’t an uncommon problem for employers. While employee engagement has risen across Asia over the last several years to an all-time high of 65%, there is still room for growth. Singapore lags other countries in the region at just 59% engagement. And as a study found that a 5% increase in engagement in this region is linked to a 3% revenue growth, it’s important to invest in team morale.
