Employment Services in Amherst

If you've been keeping an eye on the job market, you may have heard about something that's come to be known as the Great Resignation. Following the initial wave of the pandemic, which led to a huge churn in the job market and job losses across the board, the job market took an interesting turn. In 2021, the "quit rate" reached a 20-year high nationwide as workers began to leave their jobs in droves in search of better work. If you're one of the many people interested in an improved employment situation, you can get started with our employment services in Amherst to find a job on your terms without the hassle of going through the job search alone. 

What's Propelling the Great Resignation? 

Recently, the Pew Research Center made an effort to gather information about why so many workers are leaving their jobs. Here are some of the findings they came across through an extensive survey of workers who quit their jobs in the U.S. in 2021:

• Workers are frustrated with low pay, minimal opportunities for advancement, and feeling disrespected and undervalued at work.
• Child care issues are contributing to many workers' decisions to seek out new jobs, as are issues in the area of scheduling flexibility.
• The vast majority of respondents indicated that it was not difficult for them to find a new job, and nearly one-third reported that finding new work was very easy.
• Most respondents felt that their new work situation represents an improvement over the one they left in 2021.
