American workers want their managers to show more appreciation for what they do on a daily basis, reported Employee Benefit News.

Employee Benefit News spoke with Dawn Baron at PeopleFluent, a company that deals in talent management software. Baron said that managers must consistently show gratitude for the work their staff does, as well as empathy for what the job entails. If not, employees are more likely to be unattached or apathetic, which makes them also more likely to leave.

Barron's assessment isn't good considering some of the findings out there. According to the Achievers Workforce Institute, a considerable amount (40%) of employers don't feel as though the work they've done during the pandemic has gotten the attention it deserves. 

PeopleFluent puts in an effort to make its employees feel heard and appreciated. Each week the company will do a "call-out" where it thanks individuals who have made noteworthy contributions in front of the entire staff.
