Manuscript Topics

Currently, the phenomenon of “quite quitting” is exploding following the “great resignation” that has happened mainly during 2021-2022. The COVID-19 pandemic changes work conditions and workplaces in several ways, i.e., increased remote work, extreme levels of burnout, increased prevalence of mental health issues, unemployment, etc. In this context, a great number of employees do not leave now their jobs but intentionally decrease their work.

Thus, a significant percentage of employees could be described as “quiet quitters” including those who decide to quietly leave their job just doing the bare minimum. Scholars have investigated several work-related variables, such as, job satisfaction, job burnout, turnover intention, excess workload, etc. The COVID-19 pandemic has limited the work quality causing several work-related problems. However, literature regarding the phenomenon of “quite quitting” is very poor since we have not yet measured the prevalence of “quiet quitters”. Moreover, the consequences of “quite quitting” on employees’ personal and work life are unknown.

Therefore, this Special Issue will explore in depth the phenomenon of “quite quitting” among employees addressing the impacts of quite quitting on employees health. We invite scholars to submit manuscripts addressing these issues including, among others, the following:

• Theory models regarding quiet quitting.
• Prevalence of quiet quitting.
• Quiet quitting differences among different jobs.
• Determinants of quiet quitting.
• Relationship between quiet quitting and other work-related variables, such as job satisfaction, job burnout, turnover intention, excess workload, etc.
• Impact of quiet quitting on employees health, i.e., quality of life, work-family conflict, anxiety, depression, stress, etc.
• Impact of quiet quitting on relationship between employers and employees, clients satisfaction, and work productivity.
• Health policy measures to decrease and avoid quiet quitting.

Original research articles, review articles, commentaries, expert opinions, and commentaries are welcome. Comparisons between different jobs and different countries are especially welcome.
