What Workers Want: Key Takeaways from SHRM’s Global Employee Monitor

Yeah.

Thank you, Anne.

So this survey was truly a global survey.

We surveyed workers across the world.

We had representation across North and South America, Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Europe.

So really kind of up and down, side to side, a- across the globe.

Um, and we really thought it was important to understand these trends at an international scale, because the world of work is no longer confined by geography.

Companies operate with a global footprint.

Um, there's distributed work teams across different countries, and cross-border partnerships and clients.

So for organizations working across different countries, the experience of workers and the expectations that workers have of their employers is not necessarily universal, so...

And there's also economic conditions, labor market conditions, and just a lot of local context variables that help shape employee behavior.

So we, uh, were wanting to kind of take our research to the next level, and kind of broach this more global approach to help make more informed... uh, to help organizations make those more informed strategic decisions for those organizations that do operate at that level.

But it's also useful for organizations, even if they're not operating at an international level, there's country-specific findings as well that can still be valuable to those that are operating within, um, a country.

So kind of being able to provide, um, insights to both those that work internationally and within.
