‘Great Resignation’ goes global and shakes up labor market for good
[ad_1]
Without any alternative, many workers around the world have quit their job. What is the Big Quit? How will it affect our workforce?
Chloe Loh is a symbol of the “Great Resentment” like so many others around the globe.
Loh stated that she quit her job in December. Loh said that she was seeking a job with more potential for growth. “I didn’t find that role in my current job, so I decided to look elsewhere.”
American scientists coined the term Great Resignation to refer to the many millions of Americans that quit work or changed their careers during the Pandemic.
The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development’s (OECD data) shows that other advanced economies have similar trends.
There are now about 20,000,000 fewer jobs in the OECD’s 38 members countries than there were before the pandemic. However, 14 million people who are unemployed in these countries aren’t looking for work.
Others, like Chloe, are looking — but holding out for the right opportunity.
“I was talking with friends about it and they said if you have realized you need to leave, but the right job has just not come up yet – you don’t necessarily need to wait for that job to come up to leave. She said that it was “a little lightbulb moment” for her.
