Gallup says "quiet quitting," in which workers do the bare minimum, is a global phenomenon.
Forty-four percent of respondents also said they'd experienced stress at work the previous day.
Gallup's 2023 State of the Global Workplace report surveyed 122,416 employed respondents ages 15 and over in more than 160 countries from 2022 to 2023 and concluded that 59% of the workers worldwide were "quiet quitting."
The report used respondents' answers to a series of 12 questions to split those surveyed into three categories at work: engaged, not engaged, and actively disengaged.
Gallup's report estimated that such low engagement at work was costing the global economy $8.8 trillion, or 9% of global gross domestic product.
