(6/16) Job Optimism Among U.S. Workers

By Joanne Kaldy / June 16, 2021

According to new research, your employees may not be here to stay. Since the pandemic began:

  • 20% of workers have changed jobs.
  • 32% plan to look for a new job, mostly to get a salary boost or advancement opportunities.
  • 26% have moved from a permanent position to full-time contracting, and 39% want to pursue contracting as a career.

Do they feel that the company has done a good job of protecting and taking care of them this past year? What benefits would they like that they don’t currently have? Do they feel management seeks and responds to their feedback? Make some changes now before people start to flee for greener pastures.
