Gen Z workers are driving changes in the American workforce, advocating for better work-life balance, different work hours, and a four-day workweek. Their questioning of traditional workplace norms and demands for flexibility are influencing employers across generations to provide more autonomy to workers. While some older workers may view these demands as entitlement, the widespread questioning of workplace norms is partly due to the rapid spread of information. Younger workers who have gone viral with posts about work are helping popularize ideas like the four-day workweek. The global trial on remote work has also opened the door to new ways of working. Gen Zers are reshaping work by pursuing side hustles, discussing once-taboo topics like salaries, and seeking a more casual and inclusive office environment.
