The study, conducted on the hh.uz platform, revealed a significant trend among respondents, with 63% expressing a sense of being workaholics.
Notably, the survey also unveiled that 38% of participants reported difficulty disconnecting from work-related communications even during vacation periods. Additionally, 37% acknowledged experiencing signs of burnout, indicating the potential strain that work-related stressors may be placing on individuals.
Experts examining these findings drew parallels with the global concept of "silent dismissal," a phenomenon observed in various countries. This term describes a situation where an employee, while technically remaining part of an organization, loses motivation and engagement in their role.
While "silent dismissal" doesn't appear to be a universal phenomenon in Uzbekistan, the study identified a notable shift in priorities among workers. This shift is characterized by a desire to establish a more conscious balance between work time and personal life.
Analysts suggest that this change reflects not a diminished interest in work but rather an inclination among employees to allocate their time more intentionally. The focus is on seeking opportunities for satisfaction and fulfillment beyond the confines of the workplace.
As the findings indicate, this shift in priorities aligns with a global conversation about the changing nature of work and the acknowledgment of the impact of long hours and relentless work demands on individuals' mental and emotional well-being.
