The impact of Brexit and the ageing population on the UK’s employment market is the focus of Mercer’s newly published Workforce Monitor[\[1\]](https://blog.advorto.com/recruitment20/topic/rants#_ftn1) which it describes as a ‘wake-up call’ for UK employers amid predictions of an ‘unprecedented labour shortage’.

Be prepared for a talent exodus from your business in the coming months. That’s the underlying message from Investors in People's (IIP) Job Exodus Trends Report[\[1\]](https://blog.advorto.com/recruitment20/topic/rants#_ftn1) for 2017. Nearly 6 out of 10 people are thinking about moving jobs this year, representing a rise of 10% on last year. A quarter of employees have already begun their job search according to IIP.

[![](https://blog.advorto.com/hubfs/images/CEO%20Pay.jpg)](https://blog.advorto.com/recruitment20/ceo-pay-a-case-of-deja-vu)

A year ago, we [published an articl](https://blog.advorto.com/recruitment20/fat-cat-tuesday-the-reasons-uk-leadership-isnt-working)e posing the question ‘are UK leaders out of touch?’ following Fat Cat Tuesday, which highlighted the chasm between the pay of the UK’s top bosses compared to the average worker.  At the time, the CIPD called for a ‘dramatic rethink’. Fast forward one year and we seem to have a clear case of déjà vu.

[![](https://blog.advorto.com/hubfs/images/HR%20Analytics.jpg)](https://blog.advorto.com/recruitment20/we-need-to-talk-about-hr-analytics)
