Do employees trust their HR departments?

閱讀中文版本

New research from Cezanne HR has revealed that a staggering number of employees don’t trust their HR departments.

The report surveyed over 1,000 workers in the UK to understand if employees trusted their HR teams and how HR can foster greater trust with employees. According to the survey, 43% of employees believe senior staff will always be favoured in the workplace and a third don't know how to get help from HR.

In general, employees trust HR more than they did before the pandemic.
