Nearly 70% of company executives say they are 'seriously considering quitting for a job that better supports their well-being.'
Nearly 70% of company executives say they are “seriously considering quitting for a job that better supports their well-being,” according to a new report from Deloitte and market research firm Workplace Intelligence released Wednesday. And 56% have quit a job in the past because it was negatively affecting their well-being.
A smaller proportion employees also reported having the luxury of “seriously” considering quitting to take another job that supports their wellness. The report notes this is likely because executives tend to be in a much stronger financial position than their employees, so they can better afford to look for job opportunities that suit their wellness needs.
One place where everyone is on the same page, however, is blaming the ever-blurring of work-life balance for their well-being getting out of whack. Most of the surveyed employees and executives said they were facing obstacles in improving their well-being, and the top two challenges that people cited overall were a heavy workload or stressful job , as well as not having enough time to take care of themselves because they were working long hours .
“Even a whiff of toxicity will send employees running,” concluded one of the study authors. “Maybe they would have put up with it a couple of years ago; after the COVID-19 pandemic, they will not.” And: ‘One thing that human beings value above all else is our autonomy’: The gloves are off: Elon Musk is the latest CEO to tell workers to return to the office
