The Great Resignation

According to some surveys, employers are expected to see an uptick in the near future of employees resigning their jobs. Employers need to make sure that their recruiters have the right tools available to find qualified candidates, as some surveys report between 20% to 40% of employees intend to quit their jobs.

The positive side is that some employees intend to resign to take a position in a field that is better suited for them and that makes them happier.

Employers need to keep in mind that flexibility is key in being able to attract employees, because employees who have figured out a good work-life balance while working remotely are wanting to continue doing so. Also, employers need to have plans in place to facilitate relationships among co-workers and with leadership as many companies plan to allow employees to work remotely even after the pandemic.
