Covid related restrictive policies and the "great resignation"

 There has been many consequences to the way governments imposed severe restrictions since 2020 regarding coping with Covid.

One of the consequences has been the business world.

Here is a great article talking about the "great resignation"

Quote from the below article:

"...The real takeaway is why people are leaving their jobs in the first place—rampant stress, the shift to remote work, a forced reckoning with what matters in light of the pandemic—and what resigning is leading them to do next. Taken on its surface, the Great Resignation foregrounds the language of job status, but misses a parallel, arguably bigger story: the radical realignment of values that is fueling people to confront and remake their relationship to life at home, with their families, with their friends, and in their lives outside of labor...."

 

How about you, did your business suffer due to resignations.

Or did you resign from your job? Let's hear from you

 

The phrase has come to describe record levels of job turnover. But it overlooks the bigger story: a radical rethinking of our relationship to work.
