The Great Resignation doesn’t show signs of letting up, according to a new report indicating that 55 percent of workers in the United States and the United Kingdom either are looking for a new job or recently started one. What’s more, 35 percent said they are likely to make a change in the next year.

“Building the Winning Team: Insight for Recruiting and Retaining Top Talent” is a new employee health and well-being report released by YuLife, a UK-based tech-driven insurance company, and YouGov, an international online research data and analytics technology group. The results could be a wake-up call for businesses to reassess how they keep employees.

“The world is experiencing the Great Attrition, where employers today are under pressure to attract and retain talent. Employers today need to demonstrate their ability to respond to employees’ concerns,” Sammy Rubin, YuLife CEO and founder, said in a statement. “This survey highlights how employers have to adapt their management practices to not only include employee needs but also desires. Companies [that] focus on building a supportive working culture that proactively looks after their staff’s mental, physical, and financial well-being stand to reap rewards. An engaged workforce is a critical factor toward ensuring employees feel that they matter, and that is vital if you want to attain talent.”
