Gen Z in Germany isn’t interested in working more hours, even for financial rewards. According to a recent study by the online job network Xing, the majority (58%) of employees in Germany don’t think “employees should work more to ensure prosperity,” even though Germans have a shorter workweek than the European average. However, Gen Z (14-28-years-old) is +10pts more likely than Boomers and Gen X (both 37%) to say employees should—though they personally don’t want to. Instead, work-life balance is important to younger employees, and more than half would even prefer to work fewer hours than they do now. (HamburgNews)
