What is the meaning of loud quitting?

Loud quitting in the workplace is about walking away or resigning from the company, often by displaying their anger or frustration, ensuring that colleagues and superiors can’t ignore their poor experiences; making such an exit involves making strong statements, having arguments or leaving a negative powerful message.

In short, the employee leaving the organization chooses to make the exit noticeable and conspicuous by expressing their discontent or employee grievances openly and loudly.

  6. Workload imbalance: An uneven workload distribution or a perception that some employees are unfairly burdened while others have lighter responsibilities can lead to resentment and prompt a chaotic exit.

Loud quitting is an attention-grabbing resignation, and employees choose to express their frustration loudly or leave openly by expressing their emotions, such as emotional outbursts or public criticism of the workplace. Loud quitting can create tension and disruption in the workplace and adverse effects.

Quiet quitting, on the other hand, is a more discreet and private resignation. Employees who choose to quit quietly in a composed and professional manner, without creating any scene and submitting resignation letter to the HR.

Encuestas sobre el pulso de los empleados:

Se trata de encuestas cortas que pueden enviarse con frecuencia para comprobar rápidamente lo que piensan sus empleados sobre un tema. La encuesta consta de menos preguntas (no más de 10) para obtener la información rápidamente. Pueden administrarse a intervalos regulares (mensual/semanal/trimestral).

Reuniones individuales:

Celebrar reuniones periódicas de una hora de duración para mantener una charla informal con cada uno de los miembros del equipo es una forma excelente de hacerse una idea real de lo que ocurre con ellos. Al ser una conversación segura y privada, te ayuda a obtener mejores detalles sobre un asunto.

eNPS:

El eNPS (employee Net Promoter score) es una de las formas más sencillas pero eficaces de evaluar la opinión de sus empleados sobre su empresa. Incluye una pregunta intrigante que mide la lealtad. Un ejemplo de las preguntas del eNPS son ¿Qué probabilidad hay de que recomiende nuestra empresa a otras personas? Los empleados responden a la encuesta eNPS en una escala del 1 al 10, donde el 10 denota que es "muy probable" que recomienden la empresa y el 1 significa que es "muy poco probable" que la recomienden.

En función de las respuestas, los empleados pueden clasificarse en tres categorías diferentes:

  • Promotores
    Empleados que han respondido positivamente o están de acuerdo.
  • Detractores
    Empleados que han reaccionado negativamente o no están de acuerdo.
  • Pasivos
    Empleados que se han mantenido neutrales con sus respuestas.
