Hinojosa López, Jessica Ivonne Salas Rubio, María Inés Meraz Acevedo, Griselda expectativas laborales centennial generación Z mercado de trabajo job prospects centennials generation Z work market The objective of the research was to describe the work expectations of Generation Z through the opinions of 492 participants who are currently pursuing their professional studies. The survey technique supported by digital media was used. A descriptive study was developed considering expectations about intrinsic, social, extrinsic rewards, job prestige, flexible employment and work-life balance. The results suggested the exclusion of expectations about flexible employment. Differences were found by sex in expectations about extrinsic rewards, and by area of ​​knowledge in expectations about intrinsic rewards. The attributes that Generation Z values ​​most in a boss are having good values ​​and good communication; and the qualities that stand out as important to be a good professional are behaving ethically, ability to learn and ability to relate. El objetivo de la investigación fue describir las expectativas laborales de la Generación Z a través de las opiniones de 492 participantes que actualmente se encuentran cursando sus estudios profesionales. Se utilizó la técnica de encuesta apoyada de medios digitales. Se desarrolló un estudio descriptivo considerando las expectativas sobre las recompensas intrínsecas, sociales, extrínsecas, prestigio laboral, empleo flexible y conciliación entre la vida laboral y profesional. Los resultados sugirieron la exclusión de las expectativas sobre el empleo flexible. Se encontraron diferencias por sexo en las expectativas sobre las recompensas extrínsecas, y por área del conocimiento en las expectativas sobre las recompensas intrínsecas. Los atributos que la Generación Z valora más en una o un jefe son que cuente con buenos valores y buena comunicación; y las cualidades que destacan como importantes para ser un buen profesional son conducirse con ética, capacidad para aprender y capacidad para relacionarse.   Universidad Autónoma de Tamaulipas 2024-06-28 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo evaluado por pares application/pdf https://educiencia.uat.edu.mx/index.php/Educiencia/article/view/271 10.29059/educiencia.v9i1.271 EDUCIENCIA; Vol.9 Num.1 (2023); 45-59 EDUCIENCIA; Vol. 9 Núm. 1 (2023); 45-59 2683-1791 spa https://educiencia.uat.edu.mx/index.php/Educiencia/article/view/271/187 Derechos de autor 2024 Universidad Autónoma de Tamaulipas http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0
