The Great Resignation … or reshuffling?

Findings from Lincoln Financial’s 2022 Wellness@Work study

Should I stay or should I go?

These days, that’s a question many employees are asking themselves. After the upheaval of the pandemic, nearly 8 in 10 workers have reevaluated some aspect of their lives and reconsidered their priorities. One area they’ve focused on is their work and how it balances with the rest of their lives.1

Although many have considered a change, most prefer to stay with their current employer. Only 21% are actively looking, but an additional 44% would consider a new job opportunity, even though they aren’t currently searching.

What impacts loyalty?

There is an opportunity to hold on to valued employees. But what are the best ways to strengthen their loyalty?

Paid leave is among the top benefits mentioned as a key to loyalty — ranked even higher than health insurance. In fact, paid leave can be quite valuable in retaining your workforce. 75% of employees say that they’d rather stay in their current role if offered significantly improved paid leave, versus taking a job with a 10% higher salary.

About Wellness@Work

Lincoln Financial’s 2022 Wellness@Work study is based on a national survey of 2,503 full-time workers who have access to insurance benefits (at least one of the following: disability, life, dental, vision, critical illness, accident or hospital indemnity) through their employer. Greenwald Research, a third-party market research firm, conducted the study on behalf of Lincoln Financial Group. Greenwald Research is not associated with Lincoln Financial Group. Online interviewing took place from January 28, 2022 to March 1, 2022. Data is weighted by demographics to mirror the total population.

Wellness@Work is a platform for research and viewpoints on central issues related to group benefits. The program seeks to identify forward-thinking ways to help brokers, employers and employees. As part of the program, Lincoln sponsors both proprietary and third-party research, with an emphasis on what drives better benefit outcomes.
