Nationwide, more and more workers are quitting their jobs, and "The Great Resignation," as it's been called, is aggravating the hiring crunch for many industries.

In August, the most recent month for which data is currently available, 4.3 million Americans handed in their resignations, up from 4 million in July. The jump was the highest in over 20 years.

A new Gallup analysis finds that 48% of America's working population is actively job searching or watching for opportunities. And as the Gallup data show, it's not an industry, role or pay issue.

Gallup discovered that workers in all job categories, from customer-facing service roles to highly professional positions, are actively or passively job hunting at roughly the same rate. "It's a workplace issue," the polling firm said, "because the highest quit rate is among not engaged and actively disengaged workers."
