According to BambooHR’s Employee Happiness Index, education was the unhappiest industry in the first half of 2023.
Job satisfaction is at an all-time low, with only 12% of surveyed educators feeling “very satisfied” at work, as most feel overworked, underpaid, and underappreciated. While HR professionals can’t fix all the problems in the education sector (K-12 teacher salaries, for example, come from a combination of federal, state, and local funding and tend to be set by school boards), they can improve the employee experience by advocating for changes teachers value the most.
Failing to do so will likely cause the teacher shortage to worsen, leading to consequences like larger class sizes, an increase in burned-out staff, and lower student achievement.
In this ebook, BambooHR dives into the most significant challenges HR professionals face in the education sector and practical solutions to address them. With BambooHR, you can streamline operations that contribute to employee job satisfaction, such as hiring, benefits administration, and the employee experience—all in one place.
