Why is employee engagement relevant to a company’s economic success?

Numerous international studies show that high employee engagement has a significant impact on a company’s economic performance. One of the most comprehensive analyses in this field is the Gallup Q12 Meta-Analysis (2020) conducted by Gallup.
Gallup compares organizations with low employee engagement (bottom quartile) to those with very high engagement levels (top quartile). The results are clear: companies with high employee engagement experience 43% lower employee turnover (in low-turnover or white-collar organizations), 18% higher productivity, and 81% fewer sick days.
