[The "Quiet Quitting" in Nursing Workplaces and Coping Strategies].

"Quiet quitting" has become an increasingly prevalent phenomenon in various workplaces, including healthcare facilities and organizations, worldwide. Rather than resigning, employees who engage in quiet quitting establish boundaries in their roles unilaterally by focusing solely on their assigned responsibilities without proactively taking on additional tasks or engaging in innovation. This phenomenon is reflective of a reduced enthusiasm for work and a shift away from equating work with life, and instead prioritizing the attainment of work-life balance. Although not a new concept, the COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated management issues within the healthcare system, leading to severe work-life imbalances among nurses. Consequently, many nurses have chosen quiet quitting as a means to protect their rights and restore balance between work and life. Currently, quiet quitting is inadequately discussed or addressed in nursing workplaces in Taiwan. Therefore, this paper was designed to identify the causes and impacts of quiet quitting using a literature analysis and, based on the findings, propose coping strategies in hopes of raising awareness within the nursing profession and inspiring in-depth reflection and effective responses to this critical issue.
