Description
Summary:Millennials are the new talents of this generation, hence determining and understanding what they seek for in the employers is crucial for organizational attraction and better job-fit. This study focused on identifying if the prevalent work design characteristics preferred by Millennials are valued in the Philippine setting. These work design characteristics are type of work, flexibility, compensation system, promotion opportunities, organizational cultural, learning and development opportunities, and leadership style. The researchers tested the prevalence of these characteristics by administering survey questionnaire to 1, 000 Filipino Millennials, born 1990 to 1994, from 10 universities in Metro Manila. The researchers determined that Filipino Millennials value six of the seven work design characteristics, particularly flexibility, compensation system, promotion opportunities, organizational culture, learning and development opportunities, and leadership style. The results of the study allowed the researchers to recommend that Filipino employers and organizations should construct their work structures and integrate the value work design characteristics to attract Filipino Millennials.
