Trabalhadores Millennials e valores no trabalho: um estudo com alunos de administração

Abstract

Values play a fundamental role in the formation and behavior of people in society, influencing their actions and decisions. Throughout life, individuals assimilate the values of the environment in which they are immersed, shaping their way of being and acting. These values not only provide a sense of purpose and direction, but also influence social and professional interactions by reflecting the cultural norms and values of the environment in which they were created. Since analyzing the values of the millennial generation is essential, considering their significant impact on the contemporary workplace and their growing representation in the current workforce, this project's main objective is to analyze the values of millennials in the workplace taking into account the perception of undergraduate administration students at the Federal University of Alagoas. Given these considerations, the work seeks to provide a quantitative analysis of the relationship between values in the workplace and the millennial generation, taking into account the public mentioned above. As for the objective, it was described as descriptive also based on bibliographical surveys and documentary research. Our technical procedures used a data collection through an online questionnaire applied to Administration graduates from the Federal University of Alagoas. The survey results reveal those millennial respondents value skill development, creativity and purpose at work, while also prioritizing financial security and organizational structure, seeking a combination of autonomy and innovation.
