New York: The number of people quitting their jobs in the United States is increasing every month. U.S. A March 29 survey by the Business Bureau of Laser Statistics found that 4.4 million people resigned in February alone. This is an increase over the previous month. The highest number of resignations was in November last year (4.5 million). The majority of those who resigned were working in the retail, manufacturing, state and local government, education, finance and insurance sectors.
With the onset of the pandemic in the United States, 20 million people lost their jobs.
Freed from the fear of pandemic, the industry is struggling to find the right job seekers.
Last December, 11.4 million job vacancies were reported.
In the United States, there are 1.8 vacancies for each job seeker. But employers complain that they are not getting the workers they need.
Lynn Franco, senior director of the Economic Indicators, said the U.S. economy has been strengthening over the past three months.
Federal and state benefits for the unemployed encourage more people to retire.
