According to Gallup‘s latest study,  the State of the Global Workplace Report finds that, despite more than two years of the pandemic, Canadian workers seemed to rebound in 2021. Employees reported higher life evaluations than the previous year and declines across several negative emotions. In 2021, 33% of Canadian employees were engaged at work and 60% were thriving in their wellbeing, compared to the rest of the world where 21% were engaged and 33% were thriving.
