In the second quarter of 2022, a peak was reached that we call the 'great resignation' in the United States. This trend suggests that more and more workers are choosing to leave their jobs in search of new opportunities.
Experts link this trend to changes in the preferences of employees after the pandemic. One reason for resignations, as analysts note, has been a shift in people's desire to seek more flexible working conditions, as well as a desire to find more fulfilling professional fields.
According to statistics outlining this great resignation, key sectors where the number of resignations is increasing include information technology, healthcare, and education. Workers cite several reasons for leaving, including burnout, inadequate compensation, and lack of career growth.
One of the key takeaways made by experts is that companies need to reassess their approaches to retaining employees and creating more attractive working conditions. Conversely, they risk encountering a further increase in resignations and loss of experienced personnel.
