EnGen

Big thanks to Jobs for the Future (JFF), The Families and Workers Fund @ W.E. Upjohn Institute for Employment Research and Gallup for surfacing an issue that doesn’t get talked about nearly enough. The new American Job Quality Study shows that just 40% of people in the U.S. have what’s considered a “quality job." That stat hit me hard. At EnGen, we talk a lot about what it takes to connect people with meaningful employment — not just having a job, but one that helps build a future. And I keep coming back to this: we can't expand access to quality jobs without expanding access to education and upskilling, including English upskilling. This study is a call to action. Let’s make sure everyone has the chance to thrive at work.

Employee loyalty is a strategic advantage. When an employer gives workers the tools to grow, retention and referrals increase. English training becomes a talent anchor, not just a benefit. - 84% of workers say they’ll stay with their employer because English upskilling is offered. - 86% say they’d refer others for that reason.
