Sessiz İstifanın Anatomisi: Teorik Temeller, Öncüller ve Sonuçlar

The phenomenon of quiet quitting is becoming increasingly prevalent in the global workforce. Quiet quitting is defined as employees limiting their work activities to the tasks specified in their job descriptions, meeting the expectations set by their employers, refraining from volunteering for additional tasks, and taking these actions solely for the purpose of maintaining their current employment status. In other words, quiet quitting is a conscious decision of employees to prioritise their own well-being rather than organisational goals. The phenomenon of quiet quitting can be attributed to a number of factors such as weak extrinsic motivation, burnout and resentment towards superiors or the organisational structure. The phenomenon of quiet quitting is a double-edged sword. While on the one hand it helps employees to avoid burnout, on the other hand it can jeopardise their professional careers. In this study, the theoretical foundations, individual, organisational and work-related antecedents and consequences of the concept of quiet quitting were examined. In the light of the studies in the literature, the effects of quiet quitting in the business world have been examined and suggestions for the prevention of quiet quitting have been presented. It is thought that the study will contribute to the literature and guide future studies in determining new research areas.
