Book Turnover Intentions of Millennials and Generation Xers

Download or read book Turnover Intentions of Millennials and Generation Xers written by Gina Tahmasian and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study is to analyze some of the issues related to generational differences in various workplaces. This study focuses on the issues affecting the Millennials and Generation Xers and explores similarities and differences related to job satisfaction and turnover intentions. The integration of multiple generations in the workforce has resulted in a lack of mutual understanding between these two different generations due to their conflicting values and different goals. Millennials are individuals with different opinions, different ways of getting things done, and diverse values that can affect everything in the workplace including team building, recruiting, and improving productivity. Generation Xers are work-obsessed individuals, who often value the hierarchy present in their workspaces. Unlike Generation Xers, Millennials are not defined by the nature of their job. Instead, they value their impact on society by actively participating in things that matter to them. This study investigated similarities and differences among these two generations related to levels of stress, burnout, work-life balance, recognition, job satisfaction, and turnover intentions to better understand the reasons for turnover among the two groups. A survey of 200 actively employed participants found that Millennials had higher turnover intentions than Generation Xers, but Generation Xers were less satisfied with the level of recognition they received from their jobs. The study concludes with recommendations for employers on the retention of both Millennials and Generation Xers.

Book Quality of Work Life and Generation Y  How Gender and Organizational Type Moderate Job Satisfaction

Download or read book Quality of Work Life and Generation Y How Gender and Organizational Type Moderate Job Satisfaction written by Birgit Muskat and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to examine how Quality of Work Life (QWL) influences job satisfaction and to test if gender and organizational type moderate this relationship for Gen-Y.Design/methodology/approach - Questionnaire data were collected from 328 Gen-Y employees in European hospitality businesses. Drawing on generational theory, social role theory, and Person-Environment (P-E) fit theory, we discuss how gender and organizational types (i.e., independent vs. corporate structures) moderate Gen-Y's QWL-job satisfaction relationship. Findings - 1.) Gender and organizational type influence the QWL-job satisfaction relationship for Gen-Y. 2.) Job security does not change job satisfaction levels for female employees while high levels of job security negatively influence job satisfaction for male employees. 3.) Receiving appreciation at work increases job satisfaction for both women and men but, when receiving little appreciation at work, women remain more satisfied. 4.) Having opportunities to contribute to decisions positively affects Gen-Y's job satisfaction. 5.) Having the right to say is more important in independent organizations, while the opportunity to realize an employee's own potential leads to higher job satisfaction in corporate organizations. Originality/value - The study contributes to the limited empirical scholarly research, adding to a deeper understanding of influencing factors of Gen-Y's QWL-job satisfaction relationship.
