In recent years, millions of people worldwide have been working to find and maintain healthier lifestyles \u2013 especially at work. This includes looking for better work environments, fighting for fair wages, and striving to get back on track with dreams and goals. Recently, a new trend called \u201cQuiet Quitting\u201d has become part of this journey, and viral TikTok shared by baobao.farm explains why the name is misleading. What is Quiet Quitting? TikTok trend explained Quiet Quitting, as explained in the video, is the act of not going above and beyond at work. This means only doing core tasks outlined in a position in order to maintain a healthier work-life balance. The TikToker explains the trend is proof there are problems in the system. Employees shouldn\u2019t have to burn themselves out with extra workloads to make the incomes they deserve. In another video shared by zaidleppelin, Quiet Quitting is described as \u201cquitting the idea of going above and beyond at work\u201d. The video points out that \u201cwork is not your life\u201d, and shows the TikToker engaging in other pleasant activities.

The video also theorizes Quiet Quitting could be a ploy by large companies designed to guilt employees about setting healthy boundaries. Regardless of the trend, it is safe to say that setting healthy boundaries is beneficial for overall happiness. Hopefully, these videos will be a reminder that setting limits is important for any employee\u2019s mental and physical health.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Viral TikTok \u2018Quiet Quitting\u2019 work trend explained A TikTok video calls out the controversy surrounding \u201cQuiet Quitting,\u201d speaking about the importance of work-life balance.
