The number of job quits in the United States rose by 126,000 from a month earlier to 4.17 million in November 2022. That is below record peaks of roughly 4.6 million quits late last year, but is still historically high, which could force businesses to pay more to keep their workers. Quits increased in health care and social assistance (+82,000); transportation, warehousing, and utilities (+73,000); and information (+19,000). The so-called quits rate, which measures voluntary job leavers as a share of total employment, edged up to 2.7 percent in November from 2.6 percent in October, but was still down from a record high of 3.0 percent seen at the end of 2021. source: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics
