Americans quit at record rate — again

"Americans set a second straight record for quitting jobs in September, pushing the rate to 3% from 2.9% in August. The Bureau of Labor Statistics said 4.4 million workers left employment during the most recent month for which data were available, with job openings decreasing slightly to 10.4 million. While the delta variant was still weighing on the labor force in September, workers were also chasing better pay and benefits as employers elsewhere bid up."

More and more reinforcement for the critical concept of engaging, valuing, and retaining your core employees!
