六成半香港人自称工作快乐 专业人士“最悲伤”

香港生产力促进局29日发布全港首个《香港企业工作快乐指数》，发现约有六成半受访人士认为工作快乐。在影响工作快乐的因素中，工作级别对快乐程度影响最大，其中专业人士“最悲伤”，快乐指数比基层员工还要低。

Hong Kong (CNS) -- About 65 percent of Hong Kong locals are happy at work, while professionals are the least happy despite their high social status, according to the region's 1st Happiness-at-work Index for Businesses released by the Hong Kong Productivity Council on Tuesday.

The survey collected 1,328 questionnaires from employers and employees across a variety of industries, including manufacturing, hospitality, logistics, information technology and finance.

The survey found that workers in higher positions are generally happier at their jobs.

If a company has more than 100 employees, they tend to be happier than those in small-scale organizations with better employee benefits, the report also revealed.

In terms of gender, men are happier than women at work, said the report.
