Our employee engagement experts respond to the State of the Global Workplace 2025 report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Decline. That\u2019s the stark message from Gallup\u2019s latest State of the Global Workplace<\/a> report, released in April 2025. While last year\u2019s analysis warned of stagnation, this year confirms a downward trend, with engagement, wellbeing, and manager morale all worsening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sadly, the cost of inaction is growing. Low engagement now accounts for nearly 9% of global GDP, with stress and disconnection rising across the board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In this live response, our employee engagement experts break down the latest data, helping you understand how these trends affect your people \u2014 and what to do about it. We\u2019ll show you how to recover from disengagement, reduce attrition and build a more resilient workforce through our approach of creating a people-first company culture<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Global engagement has dipped to 21%, with Europe reporting the lowest figures at just 13%. In the UK, the number is even more concerning \u2014 only 10% of workers are engaged in their jobs. Gallup points to three major culprits: lack of meaningful management, declining team connection and a weak sense of organisational purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\u201cGlobal employee engagement continues to fall.\u201d<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
