The Rise of “Quiet Quitting“
It’s the workplace phenomenon everyone’s talking about: “quiet quitting.” But is it really a new trend, or just a catchy phrase for an age-old practice? This concept, which has taken social media by storm, has sparked a debate about work-life balance, employee expectations, and the very nature of a job.
Decoding the Buzzword: What is Quiet Quitting?
“Quiet quitting” doesn’t actually involve handing in your resignation. Instead, it refers to the idea of doing the bare minimum at work – fulfilling your job description but not going above and beyond. It’s about setting clear boundaries between your professional and personal life, and refusing to subscribe to the “hustle culture” mentality that often pervades today’s work environment.
