Report finds that more than half of workers feel ‘disconnected from their colleagues’

With the rise of remote work stemming from the start of the pandemic in 2020, it might not be terribly surprising to hear that lower-level employees feel somewhat disconnected from their co-workers and in particular, their senior leadership. According to a report by NovoEd, as many as 43% of employees on the lower rungs of the ladder share this feeling. While this lack of feeling of connectivity can be ascribed to a number of factors, including physical distance and issues that stem from it like Zoom burnout, it’s worth considering how to interpret this data from a workplace wellness standpoint.
