Gallup released its annual State of the Global Workplace report Wednesday, showing just a third of American employees are considered 'engaged' on the job.

The House voted to hold Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt of Congress for refusing to turn over audio of President Joe Biden.FILE - In an Oct. 24, 2007 file photo, workers leave the Warren Truck Assembly, a Chrysler automobile factory, during a shift change in Warren, Mich. “It's too low,” said Jim Harter, the chief scientist for Workplace Management and Well-being at Gallup. “And we know it's too low, because we track organizations that do well. And they're at 70%.

“We're trying to create awareness around the state of the workplace, so leaders understand what workers are going through and how they can improve not only the well-being of people in the workplace but also the performance,” Harter said.Gallup estimates that a lack of employee engagement globally explains about $8.9 trillion in lost productivity, or about 9% of the global economy.“So, there's a lot of room for improvement,” he said.

Employee engagement affects retention rates, productivity, customer service, and profitability, Harter said.
