One in Three Argentine Workers Considering Job Change as Pay Tops List

Randstad links cooler job moves to economic uncertainty plus weak hiring, urging employers to improve pay, benefits, career paths.

Overview

  • Randstad's employer-branding survey published Saturday found 33% of Argentine workers are thinking of changing jobs and 10% changed jobs in the past six months.
  • Low pay is the single biggest driver of mobility, with 50% of respondents naming salary as their main reason to look for a new job.
  • Younger workers show the strongest intent to move: 39% of Gen Z and 35% of millennials versus 23% for older cohorts and 19% for baby boomers.
  • Beyond pay, respondents flagged lack of professional development (36%), poor work–life balance (27%), and a negative workplace climate (26%) as key reasons to leave.
  • Randstad says inflation, economic uncertainty and weak labor demand are making workers more cautious and advises firms to boost compensation, benefits and clear growth paths to attract and retain talent.
