Exploring the Differences in Work Value Among Generations in the UAE

Abstract

This study aims to measure the work values of Generation X, Generation Y, and Generation Z and address the generational differences based on their work values. An appropriate sample was used where respondents were employees working, across the United Arab Emirates, in different industries in the private and public sectors. The data were collected from 130 employees based on a 45-item work value inventory (WVI). Fisher's least significant difference (LSD) statistical test was used to answer the research question based on multivariate tests across all three generations. Findings have suggested that Generation X placed more emphasis on work values as compared to Generation Z and Generation Y and were differentiated based on surroundings, altruism, and way of life work values.
