New Delhi [India], September 26: In celebration of Human Resource Professional Day, greytHR has released the HR Resilience and Well-Being Survey Report. This report provides vital insights into the challenges faced by HR professionals, focusing on their resilience, well-being, and the support they require to excel in their roles.
The survey with over 380 HR professionals across various industries reveals significant findings about HR teams' pressures, particularly regarding stress, engagement, and retention. A notable trend identified in the survey is that 68.5% of the workforce has returned to the office, signalling a shift back towards in-office work arrangements.
