The era of the Great Resignation may be over, but that doesn’t mean workers aren’t Quiet Quitting or still looking to jump ship the moment the opportunity presents itself. When tackling the topic of what employers can do to fight turnover and make their staff more willing to stay, the answer isn’t as likely as one might think, and RemoteWorker.jobs says that by analyzing the key reasons why employees quit, businesses can clearly see how they can combat high turnover by offering remote work.

Remote Worker is an online jobs board and resource website for remote workers, remote work jobseekers, and hiring managers, employers and HR personnel seeking to recruit and hire the top talent for remote positions.

The firm acknowledges that while there has been something of a tug-of-war between employers and employees when it comes to remote work vs RTO, most workers have drawn a clear line in the sand and are refusing to let go of the remote work lifestyle.

Studies show that poor work-life balance, rather than compensation, is the key reason why most employees quit jobs. It’s also the number one criteria they seek to improve on when looking for new job opportunities. Remote work provides the kind of work-life balance that many Americans find enviable. Studies show that a growing number of Millennials who work from home have more time in the day to take care of chores or other errands before continuing their work in the evenings, giving them flexibility to live and work in a way that best suits them.

Two other main reasons why workers quit is due to insufficient compensation and unpleasant company cultures. Yet, other studies have found that many Americans were willing to accept jobs with a lower pay if it meant they would be able to work remotely, showing that remote work trumps even compensation challenges. Even further, remote work is most favorable among visible minorities — including women, BIPOC workers and people with disabilities, who find that toxic company cultures are improved when the in-person element is removed.

Already, by simply offering more remote work, most of the issues cited by disgruntled workers can be addressed and businesses can better manage high turnover. It makes a strong case for why employers should forgo RTO and why more working Americans should take advantage of resources like RemoteWorker to land their dream remote job.
