# [New Research: Insight Into Employees' Personal & Professional Needs, Wants & Challenges](https://www.onshift.com/resources/blog/new-research-insight-into-employees-personal-professional-needs-wants-challenges)

<https://www3.onshift.com/survey-report-employee-perspectives-2021>The pandemic taught us the power of listening to and supporting our employees. And to help providers continue these efforts and make more informed decisions about the initiatives and resources they put in place, we distributed a survey to more than 2,800 healthcare workers. They shared insight into their daily lives, both personally and professionally, their current struggles and their hopes for the future.

[Download the report](https://www3.onshift.com/survey-report-employee-perspectives-2021) to get a snapshot of what life is like for today's frontline worker, including:

- Employee stress & burnout levels
- Satisfaction ratings on organizations’ support for their employees
- Benefits & perks employees find most valuable

You'll also learn what employees like to do outside of work and their outlook on the future. 

We hope these findings help you create and implement meaningful programs that redefine the employee experience and address two of the most persistent workforce challenges: attracting and retaining talent.
