Abstract

Negative workplace behaviors such as workplace incivility, abusive supervision, and workplace gossip can negatively affect employee well-being, particularly among Generation Z employees. This study aims to analyze the influence of workplace incivility, abusive supervision, and workplace gossip on employee well-being among Generation Z employees in Sragen Regency. This study uses a quantitative approach with a survey method. The sample consisted of 100 Generation Z employees selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through a five-point Likert scale questionnaire and analyzed using validity and reliability tests, descriptive analysis, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, t-tests, F-tests, and the coefficient of determination. The results showed that workplace incivility (p = 0.000), abusive supervision (p = 0.004), and workplace gossip (p = 0.006) were significantly and negatively associated with employee well-being. The regression model was significant (F = 34.326, p = 0.000) and explained 50.2% of the variation in employee well-being (R² = 0.502).
