MK is suffering a ‘job resignation phenomenon’, according to research released this week.

The study by Funky Pigeon found an influx of people leaving their jobs during and after the Covid-19 pandemic.

Their research analysed the Google search data of 20 resignation related phrases, such as ‘resignation letter’, ‘template for resignation letter’, ‘writing a resignation letter’, ‘how to write a resignation letter’ in the UK’s 60 most populated cities to discover where the highest numbers of people were considering leaving their current jobs.

The research found that Milton Keynes placed second in the list with 85.28 average monthly searches per 10,000 people in the city searching for these resignation related terms.

Cambridge came out on top with 97.97 average monthly searches per 10,000 people and in third place was Manchester with 81.35.

To help take the awkwardness out of writing a resignation letter, Funky Pigeon has released a range of resignation cards which allow employees to quit in a way which softens the blow.
