FORTUNE - Almost half of working parents have looked for a new, higher-paying job

Almost half of working parents have looked for a new, higher-paying job. ⁠⁠According to a new Qualtrics survey, parents feel the financial strain most acutely, reporting a higher likelihood of seeking new and additional opportunities to increase their income. ⁠⁠So much so, they are willing to move to areas with lower living costs. A whopping 69% of working parents say their pay isn’t keeping up with the cost of living, and they’re twice as willing to move to a cheaper city than their child-free counterparts. ⁠⁠Meanwhile, more than half of surveyed workers (57%) say they want the opportunity to work overtime or take on extra shifts. Thirty-seven percent say they’re actively looking for higher paying jobs, while 38% are looking for a second job.⁠⁠🔗 Read the full story by clicking the link in bio.⁠
