WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - The record numbers of Americans quitting work since the advent of the coronavirus pandemic reached a new peak in September, with 4.4 million walking away from their jobs amid child care and other pressures, the Labour Department reported on Friday.
"Within separations, the quits level and rate increased to a series high of 4.4 million and 3.0 percent, respectively", the department said in its JOLTS, or Job Openings and Labor Turnover, report.
The total number of job openings barely changed in September, with 10.4 million positions available at a rate of 6.6%, the JOLTS report showed.
