REVEALED: The happiest & saddest UK professions

With the focus on workplace wellbeing increasingly exponentially in recent years – and rightly so – more workers are now wary about the impact their job has on their health and might opt for a career that cares.

Whilst a job without stressors is probably non-existent, and, a little bit of stress at work can be a good thing, there are professions in which staff are more chipper than average.

According to a survey by Boundless, plumbers are the happiest professionals in the country, with 55% saying they were ‘very happy’ in life. Not a single plumber identified themselves as ‘unhappy’ in the job.

So, if you’ve got a candidate who doesn’t mind unblocking a loo - especially if it could prevent them from feeling blue – then plumbing could be the career to pipeline them into (excuse the puns).
