Nearly half of workers in Japan engage in ‘quiet quitting’

Some 45% of full-time employees in Japan are "quiet quitters," according to Mynavi's survey. Younger workers, especially those in their 20s, accounted for nearly half of this trend, citing less motivation and a focus on work-life balance. Akari Asahina notes that "quiet quitting" is becoming the norm, emphasizing the need for companies to respect diverse values and offer flexible work styles that fit each employee's needs.
