Jason Leverant emphasizes the need for employers to enhance employee satisfaction amid increasing workplace dissatisfaction. He points out that 51% of workers are either seeking or watching for new jobs, reflecting a trend named the 'Great Detachment.' This issue stems from factors like the Great Resignation, job market frustrations, and layoffs. With 2024's layoffs peaking and many professionals still job hunting, employees feel compelled to remain in outdated roles, leading to escalating frustration and disconnection from their companies.
Workplace dissatisfaction is leading to a phenomenon dubbed the 'Great Detachment,' where employees feel disconnected from their companies and roles due to both external and work-related stress.
The rise in employee detachment is largely attributed to the aftermath of the Great Resignation, forcing businesses to restructure and employees to take on additional job duties.
As the job market becomes less employee-centric, many professionals are frustrated by the lack of new opportunities, leading them to remain in roles they've outgrown.
Businesses cut 761,358 jobs in 2024, the highest number since the pandemic, which has sparked significant concern among employees about job security.
