Are Your Employees "engaged" In Their Work?

Judith Bardwick, an expert on workplace psychology, says employers are more likely than ever to be victims of “psychological recession”.  Many workers feel they are living in a chaotic world of job insecurity and are no longer committed to either their employer or their work responsibilities.  Bardwick says statistics show that over 80% of employees in some organizations are not engaged in the work they do.
Bardwick says that uninvolved people take no interest in their work and do just enough to avoid getting fired.  The remedy seems to lie in management’s efforts to build up trust with its workforce and to consider ideas for improvement which originate with the employees.
