But contrary to what the name suggests, these people aren’t actively trying to get off the company’s payroll – they’re just setting better work-life boundaries by doing whatever it takes to stay employed, but not break their backs to exceed expectations. The trend, like so many these days, is picking up on social media, particularly on TikTok, where the hashtag #QuietQuitting has garnered nearly five million views.

Advocates of the new trend largely reject the idea of the “hustle mentality” and “leaning in,” and instead do exactly what’s in their job description, leaving on time and not checking their email outside office hours.

Quiet interruption is about making a conscious effort to maintain our well-being in the way we work, rather than risking burnout through working long hours or defining ourselves simply by our work.” TikTok creator Zaid Khan summed it up in a video posted on the platform: “You’re not giving up your job, but you’re giving up the idea of going above and beyond,” he explained in the video, which has garnered millions of views. “You no longer subscribe to the hustle culture mentality that work should be your life.” In an interview with ABC News, digital creator Paige West said she began to embrace quiet cutting when she found herself working from home during the COVID pandemic.

“I was really struggling with the idea of a 9-to-5, especially when COVID hit and we were all working from home,” West said. “I was stuck at my desk all day from (9 a.m. to 5 p.m.) at least, working on my computer, looking at a screen. For me, this was not the ideal situation.” Story continues below ad “I didn’t want to constantly feel that stress of working this job and feeling like I had to give my 1,000 percent. So I decided to tone it down and really do the work that was required of me.” People Management, a UK-based HR magazine, argues that people have been quietly quitting for years, either to look for a new job, feel disillusioned with their career path or face an unmanageable workload. However, Jill Cotton, Glassdoor’s career trends expert, told the publication that the pandemic has fanned the flames of burnout for many. “The difference now is that when the pandemic turned the world of work upside down, it pushed more and more people to question their career choices and work-life balance,” Cotton said. 1:53 Workplace Satisfaction Survey Workplace Satisfaction Survey – 30 July 2022 Kordowicz agrees, telling the Guardian that “since the pandemic, people’s relationship with work has been studied in many ways, and the literature typically, across all professions, would argue that, yes, the way people relate to their work has changed”.

There was a sense of our own mortality during the pandemic, something quite existential around people thinking “What should work mean to me? How can I do a role that is more aligned with my values?” Recent survey data from Gallup found that Generation Z and millennial workers want to work, above all else, for organizations that care about the well-being of their employees. However, young workers said that physical well-being is not enough and that they want career, social, financial and community well-being. “Employees are saying, ‘I’m not going to define myself by traditional indicators of career development and success,’” Mark Royal, senior client partner for Korn Ferry, a recruiting and human resources consulting firm, told USA Today. “I’ll put a box around the job.”

Videos tagged #QuietQuitting have lots of tips on how to quit smoking. Many suggest shutting down your computer as soon as your shift ends, taking a full lunch break, using all your allowed vacation and personal days, and turning down extra work. Some people realize they’ve been participating in their own quiet smoking cessation for years – they just didn’t know about the trendy new name. Story continues below ad “I just realized I did this against my will,” posted actor and self-proclaimed quiet quitter Clayton Faris. “I’m still accomplishing just as much,” Farris said. “I just don’t stress and I’m tearing myself apart internally. And it’s beautiful!” Without a doubt, the idea of a quiet exit movement is likely to spark many conversations among anxious HR staff, managers and executives. However, experts have advice for nervous leaders who sincerely want to quell the need to quietly quit smoking. “Managers are really important, and that starts at the top,” Jim Harter, Gallup’s chief workplace and well-being scientist, told Today. “It’s important to have the right kind of conversations at the right time so people know what’s expected of them and their role and how their work connects to something bigger.” Royal also suggests that companies and managers proactively address and work to prevent employee burnout by prioritizing tasks, creating clear expectations and policies for social media and email, and communicating clearly with their employees. 6:36 Navigating back to desktop tap and drag Previous video Next video © 2022 Global News, a division of Corus Entertainment Inc.
