SUMMARY

BambooHR, a cloud-based human resources management platform, conducted a study of over 2,000 U.S. adults to examine shifts in work and unemployment expectations. The study reveals that the
Great Resignation trend continues, with 43% of working Americans considering a job change in the past six months. Surprisingly, 41% believe they could remain financially stable while unemployed
for more than six months, with an average duration of eight months.

With over 65 million U.S. workers potentially able to take a six-month break without pay, employers are urged to prioritize retention efforts, given the high cost of hiring new employees. Anita
Grantham, BambooHR's HR head, notes a significant shift as workers prioritize factors like pay and workplace environment, leading to drastic career pivots.

Key findings from the study include:

- 27% of workers are considering quitting due to work dissatisfaction.

- 88% are open to switching industries, with healthcare, business/professional services, and arts/entertainment being top choices.
- Generational differences show 94% of Gen Z and millennials considering industry changes compared to 84% of Gen X and 72% of boomers.
- Money is a major motivator, with living wages and opportunities for raises being top priorities.
- Dissatisfaction and feeling undervalued by employers are driving factors for career changes, with 38% feeling least valued in the past year.
- The pandemic has strained employee-employer relationships, with one-third feeling less cared for by employers in the past two years.
- Employers can improve employee satisfaction by offering bonuses/raises, individual recognition, and adequate job support.

The study underscores a significant shift in workforce dynamics, with workers increasingly prioritizing fulfillment and fair compensation, prompting employers to adapt strategies to retain talent and
foster positive workplace relationships.
