Interviewing For A Job This Year? Here Are 2025 Workplace Trends To Watch For

The beginning of the New Year can signify huge changes in your workplace. Whether that means new faces, new policies, or new ways of doing things, you must understand what workplace trends are coming down the pipe in 2025 to better prepare for them.

Let's review some workplace trends to watch for this year.

A Focus On Mental Health

With 60% of the American workforce experiencing burnout, according to a McKinsey & Company report, it's no wonder American companies are being forced to focus on mental health. Gone are the days when mental health was a taboo subject. 2025 will be the year that your mental health is more important than your job.

Disability Considerations

Persons with disabilities, long shunned and pushed out of the job market because of their disability, will now enjoy far greater consideration for positions. Companies are more ready than ever to work with those with disabilities.

Bridging The Generational Gap

Whether you're of the internet generation or not, workplaces will continue to attempt to bridge the generational communication gap.

Centralizing communication to one or two channels will make it easier for workforces to communicate with each other in 2025.

Use Of Slack & Other Centralized Communication Technologies

As working from home and remote work become more popular, the need for centralized communication methods, such as Slack, Microsoft Teams, and other forms of communication that require an internet connection, will become more prevalent in 2025. If you're already using Slack at your job, you'll be happy to learn that it won't stop once you switch.
