Generation Z (Gen Z) accounts for a growing percentage of the global workforce. In the second quarter of 2024, this group comprised 18% of the U.S. labor force, and this rate will only continue to grow. These individuals, born between 1997 and 2012, range from 13 to 28 years old, making up nearly all of the current as well as the next wave of young professionals. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts that by 2030, Gen Z will constitute 30% of the workforce.
