Worn out. Skeptical. Disengaged. If those words fit you or the employees you supervise, you have company. Employees in many workplaces have lost trust in their employers. According to the Edelman Trust Barometer, one in three of the 33,000 employees surveyed don’t trust their employer, with the distrust percentage growing the lower one travels in the organization. This distrust eats away at employee morale and commitment, saps employee performance and drains an organization’s productivity. Want proof? The Center for Neuroeconomics Studies gathered data from a dozen employers that launched policy and other changes designed to raise trust. Employees that worked for employers that had the top score for trust reported that they were 76% more engaged at work, 50% more productive and had 106% more energy than those whose employers scored in the bottom.
