(7/3) 69% of Workers Don’t Trust HR: 6 Ways to Turn It Around

By Joanne Kaldy / July 3, 2020

According to a new survey, most workers don’t see HR as a source of guidance, support, or comfort. In fact, 86% of workers say they wouldn’t tell HR if they were struggling to cope with the death of a loved one, and 92% wouldn’t talk about it if they were going through an ugly divorce. Elsewhere, 60% wouldn’t report witnessing a theft at work.

Here are some steps you can take to gain the trust of your teams:

  • Make building trust a priority for higher-ups.
  • Keep your finger on the pulse of what’s happening in the organization and the world; stay on top of current issues.
  • Respond promptly to complaints, concerns, requests, and questions.
  • Become an active listener.
  • Be transparent.
  • Focus on productivity.
