In human resources, performance punishment also known as quiet promotion refers to the burdening of high-performing employees with additional work, often without compensation or promotion. [1] [2] [3]
Performance punishment can lead to occupational burnout, resentment, and a sense of being undervalued leading to morale loss. [1] Performance punishment of high-performers may also limit opportunities for improvement of low-performers and alternative growth opportunities for high-performers. [4] Performance punishment allows for performance deficits of low-performers to be ignored. [5]
Performance punishment can be mitigated by having work fairly distributed, promoting skills development, and transparent communication. [6]
The term quiet promotion arose in response to the Great Resignation following the COVID-19 pandemic in response to quiet quitting. [7] [8] Quiet promotions may due to a staffing shortage or cost-cutting measures. [7] [9]
