How Gen Z is changing workplace expectations and attitudes

Season 2024 Episode 277 | 8m 06s

This year, members of Generation Z, those born after 1997, are expected to outnumber baby boomers in the workforce for the first time. They bring with them, like past generations, different expectations, attitudes toward upper management and views on the importance of work in their daily lives. We hear from some of those workers and Stephanie Sy reports on the generational differences.
