Sažetak
Quiet quitting describes the situation when an employee mentally and emotionally checks out form the job, and does the bare minimum in her/his everyday work activities. This topic becomes very popular since the coronavirus pandemic, when people reconsidered their approaches towards work and decided to accomplish work-life balance. Quiet quitting is mostly evident among generation Z and Millennials, but other generations are also involved in this phenomenon. In general, quiet quitting origins from an organization's failure to create a meaningful bond with its employees. Consequently, leadership orientation could influence on appearance and presence of quiet quitting behaviour. The aim of this paper was to examine the phenomenon of quiet quitting among Croatian employees. An additional aim was to analyse the connection between quiet quitting and leadership orientation. The empirical research was conducted in 2023 on convenience sample. The questionnaire was created and distributed online. Research results showed a moderate level of quiet quitting behaviour among Croatian employees. Furthermore, research results suggested that task oriented leadership is more often represented than people oriented leadership. A negative statistically significant correlation between task oriented leadership and quiet quitting has been discovered, but no statistically significant correlation between quiet quitting and people oriented leadership.
