The sample in this study is Generation Z workers who have worked for at least 6 months in various business sectors in Jakarta, especially technology, creative, and banking. The results show that workload and work environment have a significant effect on work stress; Workload has a significant positive effect on turnover intention, while the work environment has a significant negative effect. Work stress has been proven to play a role as an intervening variable. The results of the study provide novelty about the phenomenon of generation, characteristics of Generation Z who are more sensitive to stress, workload and work environment. The main contribution of this research is to enrich research related to employees from Gen Z, provide a theoretical basis for who Gen Z is in the workplace and identify factors that influence Gen Z's job retention and loyalty, which are different from previous generations.
