Future Generations are Looking to Increase Sustainable Initiatives within the Workplace

The 2024 Gen Z and Millennial Survey by Deloitte highlights that climate change and environmental sustainability significantly influence both workplace and consumer behaviors among Gen Z and millennials. With over 22,800 respondents from 44 countries, the survey found that more than 40% have left or plan to leave jobs due to climate concerns, nearly two-thirds are willing to pay more for sustainable products, and many reject work assignments conflicting with their environmental values. Additionally, these generations increasingly research companies' environmental policies before job acceptance and purchasing decisions, with substantial percentages avoiding fast fashion, reducing air travel, adopting plant-based diets, and purchasing or planning to purchase electric vehicles, reflecting their strong commitment to sustainability.
