The Philippines ranked second among Southeast Asian countries with the highest share of workers experiencing daily anger, according to a report by Gallup.

In its *State of the Global Workplace 2026* report, Gallup said 29% of Filipino respondents reported feeling anger daily, trailing only Myanmar at 32%.

Laos ranked third with 28%, followed by Cambodia at 23% and Indonesia at 21%. In contrast, 16% of workers in Malaysia reported daily anger, along with 15% in Singapore, 14% in Thailand, and just 5% in Vietnam—the lowest in the region.

Gallup also found that Filipino workers reported the highest levels of stress in Southeast Asia, with 50% saying they experience stress daily—double the regional average of 25% and higher than the global average of 40%.

Despite these findings, Filipinos remain among the most engaged workers in the region, with 39% describing themselves as “engaged” at work.

Optimism about job opportunities also remains high, with 76% of Filipino respondents saying it is a good time to find a job in their area—well above the Southeast Asian average of 64% and the global average of 52%.

However, only 34% of Filipinos said they are “thriving” at work, while 31% reported experiencing sadness in their daily work lives.

Gallup’s report is based on surveys conducted from January to December 2025, measuring employee engagement and well-being across global markets.
