workers leaving their jobs during the COVID-19 pandemic. It’s sometimes also called The Big
Quit. 
 The Great Resignation is typically discussed in relation to the US workforce but the phenomenon
is international.
 The COVID-19 pandemic has allowed workers to rethink their careers, work conditions, and long-
term goals. As many workplaces attempted to bring their employees in-person, workers desired
the freedom to work from home given during the pandemic.
 With telecommuting also came schedule flexibility, which was the primary reason to look for a new
job of the majority of those studied by Bank rate in August 2021. Additionally, many workers,
particularly in younger cohorts, are seeking to gain a better work–life balance.

working conditions and personal reassessments of career and lifestyle due to the changes and
hardships of the pandemic.
