Explained | What is quiet quitting?
The HinduThe story so far: If you are a social media user, chances are that you have seen the term “quiet quitting” while scrolling through at least one of your feeds. Some important aspects of quiet quitting include learning to say “no” to taking on additional responsibilities at work, and not checking emails outside office hours or while on vacation. In an article for Forbes, Professor Shaun Harper argued that quiet quitting “isn’t a thing among Black workers”. She’d likely be fired, demoted, or pushed out of the company,” he says, adding that rendering oneself susceptible to being fired “for doing too little isn’t something many Black workers can afford.” He pointed out that unemployment in July stood at 6 per cent for Black Americans—almost double the 3.1 per cent figure for white Americans, per data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
