Discover what your workers really want
The modern workforce is made up of billions of people, each of whom has a specialized and unique relationship with work. But work is not really working right now. While leaders and employees’ expectations for work have continued to change, work itself has not. Over the past year, the world’s workspaces, company culture, tools, and leadership styles have not yet evolved to keep pace with workers’ newfound needs.
This year’s HP Work Relationship Index (WRI) uncovers that to improve the world’s relationship with work, our attention should be on the worker – a worker who wants to be treated as an individual, rather than simply as part of a collective workforce.
Put simply: To improve society’s relationship with work, the future of work needs a fundamental shift.
As businesses rethink work, leaders and knowledge workers are placing an ever-increasing emphasis on choice, customization, and autonomy. In fact, when asked what workers ideally needed to feel happy and productive at work, 95% of knowledge workers gave a unique and distinct response.
So, while many corporations still take a one-size-fits-all approach, the 2024 HP WRI reveals that workers are operating from a more personalized mentality. When asked about their relationship with work, at least two-thirds of knowledge workers and leaders are actively seeking a personalized experience at work. In fact, knowledge workers place such a high value on the potential of a personalized work experience that 87% globally would be willing to forgo a portion of their salary to get it.
