| Welcome to The Week in Charts, where we break down Gallup's latest insights on our constantly evolving world. Here are the five insights you shouldn't miss this week: | | 1. Modern-Day Slavery Rising | | | An estimated 50 million people worldwide in 2021 were living in modern slavery conditions, with 3.3 million of them being children. This includes 28 million trapped in forced labor and 22 million in forced marriage. The International Labour Organization, Walk Free and International Organization for Migration have just issued their latest report on the state of modern-day slavery. The heartbreaking report contains some of the most important work that our Gallup World Poll contributed to in 2021.
Read Report | | | | 2. U.S. Business Sector Rating Worst Since 2008 | | | For over two decades, we've asked Americans to rate their favorability of various industries across the U.S. economy. This year was a slump for most, as the average positive rating across 25 industries hit a near-record low. The big losers this year were the grocery, real estate and advertising industries. Those at the bottom of the list were oil and gas (22%) followed closely by pharmaceuticals and the federal government (25%). Only the retail industry showed a statistically significant increase from last year.
Read Article | | | | 3. Farewell, Queen Elizabeth | | | | As the world said a final goodbye on Monday, we took a look at how Queen Elizabeth II stood out in American public opinion over her 70-year reign. In our seven decades of asking Americans to identify the woman they admire most, she never placed first but holds the record for making the top 10 list more than any woman in modern history. None other than fellow British female powerhouse Margaret Thatcher earned a distant second for top 10 appearances. The last time Gallup asked Americans to rate Queen Elizabeth, in 2003, 77% viewed her favorably. | | | | 4. Catching COVID at the Office? | | | New boosters, no boosters, masks, no masks: With all the flux in coronavirus regulations and advice out there, we wanted to go back to what first triggered the lockdown and got us all working behind our webcams. Just how worried are U.S. workers about contracting COVID-19 in the office? Today, a third of American employees are concerned about catching the virus at work, while slightly more (39%) say they are not concerned at all. Despite the relative low point in worry among workers overall, about half of education and healthcare workers still harbor significant concerns about getting sick at work.
Read Article | | | | 5. Finns and Swedes on NATO | | | As the showdown between Russia and NATO carries on, Finland and Sweden have become the latest contenders to join the military alliance. We asked Finns and Swedes how they felt about the job performance of NATO's leadership, and the results are clear. Both nations think highly of NATO, with their ratings eclipsing positive views of both U.S. and Russian leadership.
