Survey of worker satisfaction puts UK behind Germany and America

A survey of 45,000 employees from 32 countries has found that 67% of workers in the UK are satisfied with their job compared to 68% in both Germany and France, 70& in Australia, 73% in New Zealand and the Netherlands, 74% in America and Belgium and 77% in Canada.

The study, commissioned by Randstad found that this leave over 9 million British workers who are unhappy in their work, with people aged between 35 and 44 feeling the most disillusioned. According to the results, this could lead to more staff illness and sick leave, as well as reduced productivity.

Conversely, people at both the beginning and end of their careers are the happiest where they are either motivated at the start of their working lives or looking forwards towards their impending retirement.
