Surprisingly, only 41% of respondents polled for the first CNBC/Survey Monkey Workplace Happiness Index say a higher salary is the one change that would most improve their job satisfaction. The majority chose from other, non-monetary job benefits.
What would make workers happier? More money, of course! But perhaps surprisingly, a majority say that a higher salary is not the one change that would most improve their job satisfaction. This was revealed in the first CNBC/Survey Monkey Workplace Happiness Index, announced Tuesday at the @Work Talent + HR Summit in New York City.
The quarterly index was created as part of CNBC's @Work franchise, which includes a three-part event series spotlighting the future of work. The index measures how Americans feel about their jobs across five key categories – pay, opportunities for advancement, recognition, autonomy and meaning. CNBC and SurveyMonkey poll 8,664 professionals nationwide across a wide swath of industries.
The survey found that, even beyond paying them more, providing workers with opportunities to advance their careers may be the best way to improve employee satisfaction. In fact, dissatisfied workers are more likely to say they lack opportunities to advance than they are to say they are not well paid. 81 percent of dissatisfied workers rate their opportunities for advancement as either"fair" or"poor." Just 65 percent say they are not well paid.
