HR Dive | In May, workplace think tank The Workforce Institute at UKG conducted a survey of employees in North America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and India on the topic of not being heard at work.

TechTarget | Employers may not be doing enough to listen to employees, according to an 11-country study of 4,000 workers by the Workforce Institute at UKG and Workplace Intelligence. Released in June, the study found that 63% of employees "feel their voice has been ignored in some way by their manager or employer," a situation that can foster turnover.

UKG, a leading provider of workforce management and human capital management solutions, has merged EI with AI in a number of areas across its suite, including Employee Voice, an NLP tool that analyzes feedback in employee surveys to discern how they feel.
