Emolumnet, a London-based research institute focusing on employment, surveyed 1,300 professional workers across 14 different sectors. One indicator measured was the level of boredom in performing a job. The results showed that 81 percent of workers in the legal officer or corporate legal staff field admitted to being bored with their jobs. The duties of a company's legal officer typically involve managing permits, documents, intellectual property rights (IPR), employment matters, and legal issues within the company.
This research found that legal professionals are very rarely happy. Eight out of ten reported their work as extremely boring. Project managers followed in second place with 78 percent reporting boredom, and support function roles were third at 71 percent. Furthermore, this research revealed that a high salary does not necessarily indicate that a worker is happy in their job.
