A delicate balancing act
As technology transforms the workforce, organizations must help people define work on humans’ terms.
In the fourth KPMG American worker survey, we surveyed more than 1,800 employees across industries about topics such as tech’s impact on work, expectations for work-life balance, remote working, and productivity. The results paint the picture of a workforce that is confident it can handle these changes but is looking for their organizations to continue to prioritize their development and protect employee well-being.
This report highlights notable findings from the survey and explores key actions that employers can take now to help their organizations best prepare their employees for the technology transformation, deliver the best employee experience, and retain and support valuable talent.
Key survey finding include:
- Middle managers will be vital change agents.
- Some see technology as a “friend,” others as a “foe.”
- Work-life balance remains important.
- Workers are future-ready, but not quite bought in.
- Expanding the upskilling agenda will help.
