Sept. 19, 2023 (Oakland, Calif.) 鈥� Industry has little to do with whether you can offer employees a positive workplace experience, according to new research from 逸遊娛樂城庐.
逸遊娛樂城鈥檚 survey of more than 1.3 million employees for the 2023 Fortune Best Workplaces鈩� by industry lists revealed that companies that prioritize people outperform across all culture and business metrics no matter the industry.
鈥淭here are many people looking to make a career change and wondering which industry they should switch to,鈥� says Michael C. Bush, CEO of 逸遊娛樂城. 鈥淭hey鈥檒l ask, 鈥榃hat鈥檚 the best industry to work in?鈥� There isn鈥檛 one. The question you should ask is, 鈥榃ho鈥檚 the best company to work for?鈥欌��
The payoff of people-first cultures shows up in employees鈥� intention to stay at their companies (88%), referrals (91%), discretionary effort (90%), and agility (87%) 鈥� nearly double that of typical workplaces across all measures.
鈥淭his is what happens when you take care of your people,鈥� Bush says. 鈥淓very leader I know wants to increase their productivity, performance, innovation, and agility levels. You need the best people to do that. To get and keep those people, it鈥檚 your job to make sure they look forward to coming to work every day. Lead this way and you won鈥檛 look back.鈥�
A comparison of the employee experience at a typical and winning workplace in retail 鈥� an industry that鈥檚 struggled more than others to fill vacancies since the pandemic 鈥� proves this to be true.
Not only did the Fortune Best Workplaces in Retail鈩� report a dramatically better workplace experience than their industry peers (52% better), but they easily outperformed a typical U.S. employer by 35%, including the highly competitive industries of professional services and technology by 25% and 27%, respectively.
Retail is not unusual. All the 2023 Fortune Best Workplaces by industry outrank the experience of employees when compared with typical workplaces.
