With many millions of American employees quitting their jobs in February 2022, leading HR-tech organization Nayya finds that 90% of employees say benefits matter when considering whether to stay at or leave their job.

Amid the many causes cited for the “Great Resignation – low pay, limited opportunities for job mobility, insufficient flexibility around work-life balance, mental health stressors, disrespect in the workplace, childcare issues and more – a new survey by Nayya Health, Inc. (“Nayya”) suggests that one significant factor has been largely overlooked: Workplace Benefits.

According to the survey, 90% of employees say benefits matter when considering whether to stay at their current employer or find a new opportunity. In fact, according to those employees questioned, benefits such as healthcare plans and other wellness or insurance packages are the second most influential consideration behind salary when evaluating whether to remain at their current job or leave for a new opportunity.

Why have benefits been largely overlooked in the conversation around the Great Resignation?

Nayya’s research, conducted amongst 600 employees and over 100 HR leaders across ten different U.S. industries, brings to light a conspicuous disparity between what HR teams and employees themselves believe about benefits.
