Low Employee Motivation and Productivity (alien.top)

What do you believe to be the cause of the recent (5) year increase in this trend?

How do the following factors such as job design, recognition programs, career development opportunities and the organizational culture in recent years affect this. I feel there has been an increase in these metrics, however productivity and motivation continue to fall.

Nobody trusts their bosses after a bunch of people were unceremoniously laid off recently and a bunch of other people were forced to work in highly dangerous conditions as 'essential workers' during the past 3 years. Promises were made and then broken around WFH, further eroding trust. Debilitating contagious disease are still rampant, and understanding previously extended to workers for COVID is no longer there, and more people have to work sick. Cost of living has increased, and despite much of the macro data, many people's wages have not kept up. I believe most of the factors around low motivation and productivity are a combination of poor health and declining life expectancy, material financial conditions, and betrayal from promises made by employers.
