Seventy percent of workers feel stiffed on pay, advancement.

No HR Justice? Nearly 60 percent of employees in Europe’s leading companies
don’t believe their organizations are trustworthy, according to a report by
coaching specialist Krauthammer Inc. Only 30 percent believe their companies
meet the burden of “HR justice,” which is defined as offering fair pay and
providing for career growth and development. Also getting low marks, at 34
percent, was the perception of “benevolence”: whether organizations do a good
job of expressing concern about employees’ welfare. About the same proportion
(35 percent) believe senior executives do an effective job at leadership. About
one-quarter say organizational rules are rarely followed. Organizations also do
a poor job of communicating with employees and setting clear expectations. The
research was conducted on behalf of the Research on Cross Cultural
Organizational Trustworthiness, a consortium involving seven European
universities.
