This is not actually the case!
And it never has been, although it was once a more widespread belief.

Yes, salary is one slice of the employee engagement pie. 🚩 An important piece, but not the most crucial, by any stretch of the imagination. And any organization still operating under this belief, will soon realize how untrue it is, if it hasn’t already. Without a doubt, a good salary is a must. Since employees want to know that they are at least being paid fairly to market. And, before candidates will seriously discuss an open role at an organization, the salary must be right.

Because, in truth, it is an easy reason for departing employees to give, not wanting to burn a bridge. Instead, it is critical to implement a set of core practices that are known to engage employees. In addition to the following, all of which come down to leaders and managers: 💠 Kind and caring leaders 💠 Feeling valued and respected 💠 Meaningful work 💠 Autonomy In fact, the manager role is the single most important in an organization, when it comes to engaged employees. But unless they have been trained on how to engage employees, they will not know how to ensure this happens.

And if employees don't feel valued and appreciated, they will be disengaged and will leave. Regardless of how much they are paid.
