I help Canadian Benefits Advisors deepen client relationships with HR, Payroll and Benefits technology
Am I the only one who thinks this is crazy? (especially when most workers never get a 10% increase these days)? Generation Z and millennials say they’d expect a 10% salary increase, on average, if they were unable to work in a hybrid working arrangement. I'm NOT surprised that millennials would most likely look for another job if their employer didn't offer hybrid (I think that's probably commonplace for many generations). #millennials #genz #employeesatisfaction #hybrid #hrstrategy https://lnkd.in/gGC4M8HZ

Are Gen Z all idling at work? Or is it boomers who are phoning it in? And are millennials the ones picking up all the slack? This tweet was shared in our company Slack channel this week – and let’s say it was met with some differing opinions. As usual, there’s more to this question than these sweeping generalisations tell you. But there is interesting evidence that shows how Gen Z’s attitudes to work differ to other generations. After some research, I found stats that showed: ➕ 67% of Gen Z workers say ‘employees should only do the work they are paid for’, compared to 35% of over 60s ➕ 22% of Gen Z said employees should ‘always try to go above and beyond at work’ compared to 54% of Boomers ➕ 40% of Gen Z workers consider flexible hours and workdays to be a deal-breaker ➕ And 77% said compensation would be the number one factor when evaluating job offers Like it or not, employers need to listen to the priorities of their younger workforce. After all, Gen Z is going to account for nearly a third of the workforce in developed countries by 2025. This means a re-think of the full package of wellbeing support on offer for staff. There’s no point in a pool table if what your team actually cares about is finishing their work and going home on time. The focus instead should be on smart, practical measures that actually make a difference in people’s lives. And as household budgets are squeezed at a record rate, financial wellbeing is a crucial part of this.

Work-Life balance is crucial, and the rise of "Quiet Vacationing" among Millennials is creating challenges in the workplace. This trend involves remote employees traveling but not disconnecting from work or communicating with their managers. It is influenced by the work-life balance perspective of Gen X and Baby Boomers in charge. To address differing generational views on work-life balance, effective communication and understanding of employee demographics are key. #WorkLifeBalance #RemoteWork #EmployeeWellness

After WFH, Work from Beach becomes the new workplace trend among millennials In a post-pandemic world where work-life balance feels more elusive than ever, millennials are pioneering a new trend: "quiet vacationing." This stealthy strategy allows them to reclaim their personal time without setting off alarms at work, all while maintaining the appearance of productivity. The Rise of Quiet Vacationing You might have heard of "quiet quitting," "rage applying," and the "great resignation"—terms that captured the frustration and discontent of employees worldwide as the Covid pandemic upended traditional work norms. Now, a new term is making waves: "quiet vacationing." This trend involves taking time off while pretending to work remotely, and it's gaining significant traction among millennials. A Harris Poll of 1,170 employed US adults revealed that 37% of millennial workers have taken time off without informing their bosses. Libby Rodney, chief strategy officer at the Harris Poll, describes it as a "giant workaround culture at play." She explains, "They will figure out how to get an appropriate work-life balance, but it's happening behind the scenes." The Pressure to Perform Quiet vacationing isn't about rebellion; it's about survival in a high-pressure job market. Millennials, who make up 40% of the workforce, often fear that requesting vacation time will make them appear less dedicated. The Harris Poll found that nearly half of all respondents, including 61% of millennials and 58% of Gen Z, felt anxious about asking for personal time off (PTO). Additionally, a staggering 80% of US employees don’t use all their PTO, with Gen Z and millennials leading this trend. Instead of risking their bosses' disapproval during crucial business periods, millennials quietly take the breaks they need. As Rodney told Fortune, "Instead of going at it head-to-head and worrying about if you'll rustle the feathers of your boss during a tight economic quarter, millennials are just kind of doing what they need to do to take their vacation." Crafting the Illusion of Productivity To keep up the facade of productivity, millennials have devised clever tactics. Some use "mouse-jiggling" software to appear active on communication platforms like Slack. Others send messages outside work hours to simulate working overtime. These strategies allow them to quietly enjoy their time off without drawing attention. Rethinking Work-Life Balance The rise of quiet vacationing highlights a critical issue: the need for a healthier work-life balance. Employers can address this by actively promoting and even mandating the use of PTO. By taking time off themselves, leaders can set an example, normalising the practice and reducing employee anxiety.

Contrary to the traditional pursuit of higher salaries at all costs, Gen Z and millennials have a strong emphasis on work-life balance, personal development, and meaningful work. In a recent debate with a dear friend from a large corporation, I argued that these Gens are adamant about their priorities. They will not go after larger monetary compensation at the account of their preferences. This isn't speculation. Numerous studies and surveys support this shift in priorities: 1. Research from Deloitte titled “2023 Gen Z and Millennial Survey” says 77% of Gen Zs and 75% of millennials who are currently in remote, or hybrid roles would consider looking for a new job if their employer asked them to work on-site full-time. Link: https://lnkd.in/djErKtYx 2. The same report shows that most Millennials would give away high pay for improved work-life balance. They look for positions with a purpose and a company that aligns with their values but not necessarily high-paying positions. 3. When asked about the factors that most influenced the decision to accept a job offer, 65% voted for personal development vs 21% for salary (source: PWC report Millennials at work reshaping the workplace). Link: https://lnkd.in/dgeXPXSq The above is not just a trend! These are facts that are redefining the workplace in fundamental ways. Companies need to adapt to these changes in the newest workforce generations to report tangible benefits. These include enhanced employee satisfaction, lower turnover, and greater innovation which are essential to survival in the current market dynamics. #WorkLifeBalance #GenZWorkplace #MillennialMinds #PersonalDevelopment #InnovativeWorkplaces #FutureOfWork #CareerGrowth #CompanyCulture #EmployeeSatisfaction
