MetLife research shows generational disparity on which benefits matter most

Published 3 Min Read

Baby boomers and their younger colleagues disagree on how the coronavirus pandemic has impacted their work-life balance.

Fifty-one percent of millennial and Gen Z workers say their work-life balance is better now than before the pandemic, while only one-quarter of baby boomers say the same, according to MetLife’s 19th annual employee benefit trends study. Employees across all generations agree that the pandemic has caused a decline in their physical, mental, social and financial well-being. However, the reduction in in-person interactions seems to have hit baby boomers harder.
