It’s a term that has become popular in Tik Tok, and we felt the need to talk about it: Quiet quitting!
The reality is that quiet quitting isn’t something new, it’s just a new term for an old concept that is well-known in the HR world: the lack of employee engagement and connection with the company for various internal and external reasons.
The concept of quiet quitting is keeping you at work but only doing the minimum essential activities, which don’t require or entail additional sacrifices such as excessive workload, overtime or performing the functions of other positions.
Regardless of the definition, the goal of the employee who performs quiet quitting is the same: to separate their work life from their personal life, generating a greater balance in their time and activities, with the objective that the limits they set at work give them more time and energy to invest in what they are interested in and passionate about.
In this way, the silent resigner is fulfilling his or her duties at work but refuses to take on extra work, refusing those functions for which he or she is not being paid.
In short, quiet quitting is about fulfilling your contract in full, but no more. It’s not about doing the minimum, it’s about doing your job well, but not taking on an overload of work.

Workers have been quietly quitting their jobs for years to find something new, whether due to poor pay, unmanageable workload, burnout or lack of growth opportunities.
Seven in 10 employees experienced burnout in the last year, according to Asana’s Anatomy of Work 2022 report. Employees suffering from it are less engaged, make more mistakes, and leave the company.
A 2021 Gallup poll found that only 36% of people were engaged in their work. Some people stay in their jobs and look for a different job while earning a steady paycheck and maintaining health insurance or other benefits, according to a LinkedIn survey.
Salary growth can also be a major factor in why people don’t want to put everything into their careers. In July 2022, the inflation rate reached 8-9%, and the average increase was 3.4%. In reality, people are earning less money, which makes them wonder why they should work so hard.
