While resignations actually decreased slightly in industries such as manufacturing and finance, 3.6% more health care employees quit their jobs than in the previous year, and in tech, resignations increased by 4.5%.
We also identified dramatic differences in turnover rates between companies in different industries. Resignations are highest in the tech and health care industries. It’s also possible that many of these mid-level employees may have delayed transitioning out of their roles due to the uncertainty caused by the pandemic, meaning that the boost we’ve seen over the last several months could be the result of more than a year’s worth of pent-up resignations.Īnd of course, many of these workers may have simply reached a breaking point after months and months of high workloads, hiring freezes, and other pressures, causing them to rethink their work and life goals.
This would create greater demand for mid-career employees, thus giving them greater leverage in securing new positions. First, it’s possible that the shift to remote work has led employers to feel that hiring people with little experience would be riskier than usual, since new employees won’t have the benefit of in-person training and guidance.
There are a few factors that can help to explain why the increase in resignations has been largely driven by these mid-level employees. Interestingly, resignation rates also fell for those in the 60 to 70 age group, while employees in the 25 to 30 and 45+ age groups experienced slightly higher resignation rates than in 2020 (but not as significant an increase as that of the 30-45 group). While turnover is typically highest among younger employees, our study found that over the last year, resignations actually decreased for workers in the 20 to 25 age range (likely due to a combination of their greater financial uncertainty and reduced demand for entry-level workers). Resignation rates are highest among mid-career employees.Įmployees between 30 and 45 years old have had the greatest increase in resignation rates, with an average increase of more than 20% between 20. This global dataset included employees from a wide variety of industries, functions, and levels of experience, and it revealed two key trends: 1. To explore exactly who has been driving this recent shift, my team and I conducted an in-depth analysis of more than 9 million employee records from more than 4,000 companies. How can employers retain people in the face of this tidal wave of resignations?Īddressing the root causes of these staggering statistics starts with better understanding them. Resignations peaked in April and have remained abnormally high for the last several months, with a record-breaking 10.9 million open jobs at the end of July.
