Towards waves of resignation in several countries? About 37% of employees occupying positions without possible telework plan to leave their work in the next six months, according to a study conducted by the BCG firm in seven countries, and published Thursday, July 7.
In detail, the Japanese (42%) and the British (41%) are the least attached to their jobs, followed by Australians (36%), Indians and French (34%), then Americans and Germans ( 33%). In these seven countries, these professions without telework represent 75 to 80% of the payroll, assures BCG. His report “Why officeless workers leave, how to bring them back” was carried out on the basis of a representative sample of more than 7,000 people.
According to the authors of the work, the distribution and industrial production sectors are the most threatened by this new phenomenon of “great resignation” which is looming. However, no sector seems spared. On a generational level, 18-24 year olds (48%) are twice as likely to walk out the door as 58-65 year olds.
The reasons pushing employees to leave their job are first the lack of prospects for development (41%), the salary (30%), the lack of flexibility (28%), followed by the balance with personal life and professional growth.
The question of development prospects comes out strongly in most countries, but the ranking highlights differences on the other criteria. In France, the salary thus appears behind the balance of life, while the lack of recognition is felt.
For Indians, poor benefits are a source of concern while for Americans, relations with the hierarchy also enter into the equation.
