Job Happiness Improves Your Health

By
Research Bit from Jobsite.

HappydaysThis is a great bit of research from Jobsite. What better way to get people to use their site than to assess their happiness and then suggest they look for another job that will make them happier. I suggest headhunters keep this bit of research to hand when trying to entice execs from one company to another!

The Jobsite “Happy Days” research examined the impact of being happy at work and the immediate effect of a good and bad work-day on an evening at home. They surveyed 421 workers at 20 commuter train stations across the country and collected saliva samples (I wonder if the saliva samplers are happy in their work!) on both a work day and a leisure day to compare stress and immune levels to determine the changes in behaviour after a day at work.

For the full report you'll need to email (the very helpful) Vicky at vicky.taylor@jobsite.co.uk
