  • AKE NEWS: 22.5% of European organisations and their reputation have been affected by fake news within the last months. The main sources of misleading content are social media (81.3%), but mass media (59.6%) also plays a huge role. Despite these challenges only 12% of the affected organisations have already established advanced routines to identify (potential) fake news.
  • INFORMATION PROVISION: By far the most important and most frequently provided information by communication specialists is about news in ‘gate kept’ media (mass media with professional journalists) and social media. Only 28.4% of the communication departments and agencies in Europe prepare advanced types of reporting with edited or curated content that delivers deep insights for decision-makers on a daily basis.
  • WORK STRESS: 39.0% in Europe feel tense or stressed out during their working day. At the same time 25.0% do not have the appropriate resources to manage this experience. Hence, one in four (27.9%) has serious stress problems (reporting stress and not being able to manage it).
  • Job satisfaction: Longitudinal comparison with the monitor surveys in 2010 and 2014reveals a slow decline in overall job satisfaction among communication professionals in Europe. 28.9% of the surveyed practitioners would like to change their current employer within the next twelve months. However, three quarters of the communication professionals in Europe are happy in their job – overall satisfaction is the strongest in consultants or agencies (79.0%).
