Abstract

The phenomenon of quiet quitting has become a significant concern in the world of work, especially in corporate environments. The term refers to a condition when employees only work according to their basic duties without extra involvement outside formal responsibilities. This phenomenon reflects the changing values in the modern workplace, where life balance, job satisfaction, and mental health are the main focus rather than excessive productivity. This research aims to explore the development of studies on quiet quitting through a bibliometric approach by utilizing the Google Scholar database and VOSviewer software. The results of the analysis include publication trends, source distribution, main contributors, and clustering of research themes. The thematic visualization shows that this issue is closely related to employee engagement, burnout, generation Z, organizational roles, and managerial responses such as quiet firing. This study provides important insights into research directions and gaps that can be leveraged for the development of management strategies that are adaptive to changes in employee behavior in the post-pandemic work era.
