There are a few signs that may indicate that quiet quitting is happening in an organization.
These signs can include:
Sudden or unexpected absences or cancellations of meetings or events without explanation
Lack of response to emails, messages, or other communications from the employee
Disconnection from work-related accounts or communications channels without explanation
Lack of follow-through on assignments or tasks that were previously being handled by the employee
If an employee is quietly quitting, they are likely to stop showing up for work and to disconnect from work-related accounts and communications channels without giving any notice or explanation. This can be difficult to detect, but may be indicated by the signs listed above.
If you suspect that quiet quitting is happening in your organization, it is important to address the issue as soon as possible. This can involve discussing the issue with the employee who is quitting, and working with them to ensure a smooth transition and to avoid negative consequences. It may also involve taking steps to prevent future instances of quiet quitting, such as by improving communication and support for employees who are considering quitting.
