Beyond the Borderline

25. The Great Resignation


Listen Later

Cam, Phil, Ryan, and Connor discuss the phenomenon that occurred around the world in 2021: the mass resignation of workers from many industries, at levels not seen for at least two decades. What precipitated this mass exodus from the workforce? Is The Great Resignation a real observable incident, or have the statistics been skewed to favour that narrative? If it is a real thing, was it caused by legitimate working-class grievances, or the entitlement and laziness of younger people? And lastly, will this movement usher in a new 'golden age' of workers rights - shifting more power towards employees as opposed to employers - or will it lead to further instability resulting in the collapse of domestic service-based economies around the world? If you're young and joining the workforce, this episode is for you!
