According to a&nbsp;<a href="https://fox40.com/business/press-releases/ein-presswire/744210601/employee-engagement-in-the-franchise-sector-remains-steady-despite-declines-in-well-being-and-wage-satisfaction/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=employee-engagement-franchising-fbr-2727454" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">recent EIN Presswire press release</a>, the study revealed that 84% of corporate franchise employees find their work rewarding, significantly higher than the national average for employee engagement in the U.S., which is below 40%. Despite these positive results, challenges remain, with younger employees (Gen Z) reporting lower levels of emotional and financial well-being.&nbsp;Key highlights from the study include high employee well-being at 86%, although there was a notable rise in those rating their well-being as poor. Additionally, 57% of employees feel under-compensated, despite wages being at historic highs. FBR also recognized companies for prioritizing employee engagement through its Franchising at Work Awards, with&nbsp;<a href="https://www.jasonsdeli.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=employee-engagement-franchising-fbr-2727454" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Jason's Deli</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://anagocleaning.com/franchising/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=employee-engagement-franchising-fbr-2727454" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Anago Cleaning</a> and&nbsp;<a href="https://houndstownusa.com/franchising/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=employee-engagement-franchising-fbr-2727454" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Hounds Town USA</a> taking top honors in their respective categories.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/michellemonroerowan/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=employee-engagement-franchising-fbr-2727454" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Michelle Rowan</a>, president and chief operating officer of FBR, emphasizes the importance of engagement: “These companies have set themselves apart as top employers in franchising through their commitment to creating an exceptional employee experience.”For more information on employee engagement in franchising, check out these related 1851 Franchise articles:<ul><li><a href="https://1851franchise.com/boost-employee-engagement-with-these-6-core-human-needs-2718744#stories">Boost Employee Engagement with These 6 Core Human Needs</a></li><li><a href="https://1851franchise.com/forced-fun-wont-improve-employee-engagement-2716167#stories">Forced Fun Won’t Improve Employee Engagement</a></li><li><a href="https://1851franchise.com/the-five-most-important-rules-of-employee-engagement-9429">The Five Most Important Rules of Employee Engagement</a></li></ul>
