The Great Resignation

Workers in Australia didn’t resign from their jobs in the wake of COVID, but they did burn out. A new survey found some solutions.

The great resignation spoke of the changing attitude and expectations of the workforce and now it is here. It is a candidate revolution of sorts!

Following the Great Resignation, another significant workplace trend has emerged: the Great Exhaustion – a burnout phenomenon that is disproportionately impacting women.

When startup founder Nim de Swardt decided to apply for a new job, she didn’t go down the usual path of job applications. But her creative approach worked.

The Great Resignation is alive and well here in Australia, with one in five quitting jobs in the past 12 months and a another quarter considering changing jobs, according to new research from NAB.

Treasurer Frydenberg is calling for a “great reshuffle”. A chance to take advantage of low employment rates. But he should know there’s more at stake for women.

As the Omicron virus leaves thousands of families without childcare, early childhood educators are in demand.

Women are exhausted. Entire sectors are at risk. A massage or even a few days off won’t fix the problem. The Great Burnout is upon us.
