Canadians are the most happy with their jobs, according to a recent study. The study reported that approximately two thirds, of 64 percent, of Canadians said that they loved their job or ‘like it a lot’. A full 24 percent of Canadians love their jobs so much that they said they would even work for free.
A mere two per cent of Canadians stated that they hated their job. Young people are more likely to be dissatisfied with their work, though dissatisfaction rates rose to only 13 percent.
Canadians were surveyed in addition to residents of the US, India, and a number of European countries. Other countries reported job satisfaction rates significantly lower than in Canada, such as only 26 percent in the United Kingdom and 34 percent in Germany.
This report reinforces similar studies, most notably one conducted by the Bank of Montreal (BMO) in September revealing that over half of Canadians believe to be working their ‘dream job’.
