The Great Detachment is looming for employees, experts warn — especially for Gen Z

Summary

Gallup data estimates it could cost more than $8 trillion globally, and employees who are not engaged cost their companies the equivalent of 18% of their annual salary.

This is particularly relevant in the past year, where middle management positions are being axed. The tech bubble has burst, and social media has been flooded with personal stories of layoffs.

A survey from Applied of 2,001 UK adults found that almost half (47%) of Gen Z workers had a career gap of six months or more.

People, overall, want to feel like their work matters, Rinne said. Building a culture of trust where people turn up to work and feel safe doesn't happen by accident.

Absolutely not! Wish they'd stop with this generational warfare and focus on the one the upper class is raging on the lower.

Exactly! I forget who said it, but it's all a distraction from the real problem!
