It evaluates key indicators such as <strong>work engagement<\/strong>, <strong>personal well-being<\/strong> and <strong>daily emotions<\/strong> as predictors of resilience and business performance. <\/p><h5><strong><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">_<\/span><br>Global Work Environment Indicators<\/strong><\/h5><p>Globally, the picture shows a stagnation in commitment after years of improvement:<\/p><ul><li><strong>Only 20% of employees are engaged<\/strong> (highly involved and enthusiastic) with their work. 64% are disengaged (they put in time, but not energy) and 16% are actively disengaged (they can undermine the team&#8217;s achievements). <\/li><li><strong>34%<\/strong> of workers consider that they are prospering (positive view of the present and future).<\/li><li><strong>Managers emerge as the critical link:<\/strong> since 2022, their engagement has fallen 9 points globally, with the largest annual drop occurring between 2024 and 2025.

The estimates are conservative because they do not add the additional costs associated with low engagement, such as accidents, turnover, absenteeism or healthcare costs. <\/p><p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">Gallup meta-analyses consistently show a strong relationship between employee engagement and productivity at the business unit level, including profitability and sales. Teams with disengaged or actively disengaged employees generate less profitable organizations, which in turn translates into lower economic growth. <\/p><p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">Researchers at Stanford, Harvard Business School and MIT found that <strong>differences in management practices explain approximately 30% of the variation in<\/strong> total factor <strong>productivity<\/strong>.
