Inc.: 9 out of 10 workers are looking to change jobs.

An economic recovery in full swing. Record-setting highs in the stock market. Decreasing unemployment with millions of jobs available. That’s America in summer 2021, creating the perfect climate for workers.

According to research from Monster Worldwide, a Randstad company, 95% of workers are considering new opportunities. Most who say they are ready to quit and move on cite burnout (32%) and lack of career growth (29%) for reasons they are looking out.

What are they looking for instead? In a word: flexibility. That means remote work options, hybrid workplaces, and flexible hours and schedules. It’s not just white-collar employees either. Blue-collar employees want similar opportunities to work around their other priorities at home and school.

Mike Smith, global CEO of Randstad Sourceright, sums it up. “There is a clear move toward a more flexible approach to talent, while still maintaining key expertise and skills within the permanent workforce,” he says. “Striking such a balance is the key to a more agile workforce.”

Employers that can offer what today’s workers want will end up on top, especially those that listen to their current workforce and strive to retain top talent.
