Gen Z values work-life balance more than older generations, who prioritize job commitment. COVID-19 has shaped Gen Z's approach, emphasizing mental health and not just career advancement.
For the most part, boomers won't call off work. Instead, they might come to work and say, 'My car broke down. I had to borrow my neighbor's car to arrive on time,' but they still made it in.
Gen Z might say, 'Well, my car is broken,' or 'I'm sick, so I can't come in.' They don't feel an overwhelming guilt about calling in sick when needed.
Some of this feeling stems from the COVID-19 pandemic. For three years, we told everyone not to leave their houses if they felt sick, and the younger generation has carried that message into the workplace.
