Survey Overview
AREAS OF CONTINUED FOCUS
Flexible schedule?
Having a flexible schedule is important to me:
Flexibility in the Workplace Flexibility remains important to employees, but it is not offered consistently. Nearly *68% of employees say workplace flexibility is important to them, yet only **49% report that their employer offers flexible work arrangements, often depending on role. Among organizations that do provide flexibility, hybrid work (32%) and flexible start times (21%) are the most common options. This gap between employee expectations and organizational practices positions flexibility as a continued opportunity for employers looking to strengthen attraction, retention, and overall workforce satisfaction.
I receive actionable feedback:
Employee Development and Leadership Approximately ***54% of employees say they consistently receive helpful feedback and development support through both formal processes, such as performance evaluations, and informal conversations. Among those who report having access to training and development, more than 77% say employees or managers request training, while only 12% is driven by organizational needs or data. While employee and manager input is important, organizations may benefit from aligning training investments more closely with future business goals and skill needs to ensure time and resources are used as effectively as possible.
Does your work environment support psychological safety?
Psychological Safety Psychological safety emerges as an area to watch across many Oklahoma workplaces. A majority of employees (51%) agree or strongly agree that their work environment supports psychological safety, including clear job expectations, respect for contributions, and the ability to ask for help, with 27% of the 51% strongly agreeing. These findings suggest a good foundation of trust and support however, employers must continue to build on to strengthen engagement, collaboration, and overall workforce well- being.
