GBA Launches 2026 State of the Workplace Industry Survey

The workplace is rapidly evolving, and geoprofessional firms are navigating unprecedented challenges. The GBA 2026 State of the Workplace Survey, presented in partnership with The Employee Engagement Group (EEG), will help your firm anticipate trends, benchmark practices, and make informed decisions.

This year’s survey has been updated to address critical new topics, including:

• Employee mental health: How firms are supporting well-being in a changing work environment.
• Artificial Intelligence: Its impact on workforce strategies and operations.
• Economic uncertainties: How organizations are preparing for potential downturns and cost pressures.

In addition, the survey explores:

• Top organizational concerns, from recruiting to retention.
• Policies on flexibility, telecommuting, and PTO.
• Compensation, benefits, and inclusion initiatives.

Your input can help drive industry-wide practices that influence how firms approach talent management, compensation, and workplace culture. By participating, you’ll play a role in driving the changes that shape the future of geoprofessional work.

Survey results will be compiled into a comprehensive report that will be essential for staying competitive.

The survey is quick, confidential, and open now. All respondents will receive a copy of the 2026 State of the Workplace report and be invited to a webinar to dive into the insights on December 12.

The survey closes on December 5, 2025.
