The “new” BIG QUIT is here!
Yes, HR is challenged by the shortage of skilled workers – but today, companies even struggle to find any employees in general. At the same time, nearly 70 % of all surveyed employees seek a new job voluntarily. Not just any job – but a better job and with a better employer.
2,196 study participants gave insights to:
- what reasons make employees look for a new job,
- how long the phase is between first doubts and an application for a new job,
- and whether this new situation depends on the level of education or work experience.
And employers? Everything remains the same.
47.9 % of respondents would have liked to stay with their employer. Appreciation or a higher salary could have prevented them from quitting. The other half, however, had already given up hope that the employer would ever address their wishes or points of criticism.
