What workers want in 2026

Overview

The world of work is shifting again, faster, more measurably, and more visibly than we saw even in 2025. In this session, we’ll explore brand-new 2026 workforce insights from the New Possible What Workers Want survey 2026.

We will talk through what these insights mean for employers looking to attract, retain, and engage talent in a competitive labour market.

This session will be run in partnership with New Possible.

You’ll leave with practical, evidence-based actions that help you build a more resilient workforce and shape an employee experience that genuinely delivers results
