W: Welcome to Work Place. And in today鈥檚 program, we鈥檙e looking at the results
of two recently published surveys, which
both
deal with
the same topic - happiness
at work. John, tell us about the first survey.
M: Well, this was done by a human resources consultancy, who interviewed more
than 1,000 workers, and established a top ten of the factors, which make people
happy
at
work.
The
most
important
factor
for
the
majority
of
the
people
interviewed was having friendly, supportive colleagues. In fact, 73% of people
interviewed put their relationship with colleagues as the key factor contributing
to happiness at work, which is a very high percentage. The second most important
factor was having work that is enjoyable. The two least important factors were
having
one's
achievements
recognized,
and
rather
surprisingly,
earning
a
competitive salary.
W: So, we are not mainly motivated by money?
M: Apparently not.
W: Any other interesting information in the survey?
M: Yes. For example, 25% of the working people interviewed described themselves
as 'very happy' at work. However, 20% of employees described themselves as being
unhappy.
W: That鈥檚 quite a lot of unhappy people at work every day.
M: It is, isn鈥檛 it? And there were sev
eral more interesting conclusions revealed
by the survey. First of all, small is beautiful: people definitely prefer working
for smaller organizations or companies with less than 100 staff. We also find
out that, generally speaking, women were happier in their work than men.
W: Yes, we are, aren鈥檛 we?
M: And workers on part-time contracts, who only work 4 or 5 hours a day, are
happier than those who work full-time. The researchers concluded that this is
probably due to a better work-life balance.
W: Are bosses happier than their employees?
M: Yes, perhaps not surprisingly, the higher people go in a company, the happier
