Abstract
The chapter aims to offer insights of how the US news media construct the Great Resignation, its causes, and the individuals involved, using a Corpus-Assisted Discourse Studies approach. The analysis reveals that the discourse surrounding the Great Resignation in the US press is shaped by ideological divides. Business-oriented narratives emphasise the operational challenges, while labour-oriented discourses
highlight worker empowerment and justice. This dual framing portrays the Great Resignation not just as an economic event, but as a cultural shift with lasting implications for how work is perceived in society, redefining the employer-employee relationship.
