The latest survey of 5,000 women in 10 countries by finds a troubling evolution for working women in a “burnout epidemic.”
WASHINGTON — The last year has been a mixed bag for Julia Martin.
“That pressure” is something Martin first talked about a year ago at the height of a national reckoning with the pandemic’s impact on working women.from Deloitte found that working women were facing a “perfect storm” from pressures at home and work because of the pandemic. A national trend of resignations across the country is leaving companies to grapple with the loss of institutional knowledge in their workforces as they try to adapt to a post-Covid normal that allows flexibility for workers now habituated to years of working outside the office.“I can stay where I am,” she said.
Microaggressions and harassment have also become troubling trends over the last year, with 59 percent of respondents saying they have experienced such treatment at work over the last year. Only a small number have felt comfortable reporting the behaviors, with more than 9 in 10 saying they fear doing so would negatively affect their careers.
