New York, November 5 (RHC)-- Millions of people have quit their jobs across the United States as part of a wave of mass exodus of workers, which has raised concerns that a cultural shift, known as “Great Resignation” is accelerating in the country.

An estimated 20 million Americans left their jobs this spring and summer, according to the latest federal data.  Only in August, a record 4.3 million abandoned their jobs, according to the US Department of Labor.

A survey by Morning Consult for Prudential in mid-September shows that 46% of full-time employed US adults are either actively looking for or considering a new job search.  The term “Great Resignation” was coined by the US academic Anthony Klotz for the wave of coronavirus pandemic “quits.”   Many are concerned that the cultural shift was getting started in the United States.
