Core Insights - A recent Gallup survey indicates that only 40% of Americans have "quality jobs," highlighting widespread job dissatisfaction across various industries and demographics [1] Group 1: Definition of a "Quality Job" - The Gallup study identifies five measures of a "quality job": fair pay and benefits, a safe and respectful workplace, opportunities for advancement, having a voice in decisions, and control over work schedules [2] - A "quality job" must meet a minimum threshold in at least three of these categories [2] Group 2: Financial Well-being - The study sets a "quality job" income benchmark at $5,287 per month, which is 300% of the federal poverty threshold for a full-time worker with a family of two [3] - Only 48% of respondents reported earning above this benchmark, while 29% indicated they were struggling financially [3] Group 3: Workplace Culture and Safety - Workplace culture and safety are defined as a safe, respectful environment free from discrimination or harassment, with 83% of respondents agreeing they were treated with respect at work [4] - However, respect levels varied by industry and demographics, with one in four workers reporting unfair treatment or discrimination [5] Group 4: Growth and Development - One in four respondents reported having no opportunities for promotion or advancement, with such opportunities more prevalent in larger organizations (1,000 or more employees) [6] Group 5: Agency and Voice - Agency and voice refer to a worker's influence over decisions affecting them, such as pay and working conditions, with nearly 48% reporting limited influence on critical working conditions [7] - A lack of agency correlates with lower well-being, job satisfaction, higher burnout, and increased intentions to leave a job or join a union [7]
