UK workers switch off whilst 19% look for new career

UK employees are choosing to “quit in seat”, whereby they decide to stay in their current job whilst mentally checking out, according to a new survey.

The study, conducted by advisory firm CEB, assessed over 18,000 employees worldwide, finding that just 19% of workers are taking an active role in looking for a new job. This correlates to staff applying for roles online, getting in touch with recruiters and sending out their CVs.
