Abstract

ABSTRACT Values are one important thing in peoples’ life (Lindeman & Verkasalo, 2005) that guides individuals to think and take some actions. In the workplace, these values are closely related to people’s competence within their duties. As the generation of the forthcoming workforce, it is important to capture the value possessed by the millennial generation. Therefore, this study investigates what millennials value most in their life. The data was collected using The Short Schwartz’s Value Survey to get an overview of the intrinsic value that motivates people using a Likert scale (0-8). There are ten values measured, namely: power, achievement, hedonism, stimulation, self-direction, universalism, benevolence, tradition, conformity, and security. This study involved millennial workers (N=123) who graduated varies from high school to postgraduate. Benevolence (47.97%) and conformity (47.15%) were considered very important values. Nevertheless, there are no differences in values between sex and years of service. Values of achievement (p=0.028) and self-direction (p=0.009) found different between monthly salary, moreover, values of power (p=0.04) and conformity (p=0.03) were found different between educational background. These findings imply that there are significant differences in several values according to millennials’ income and educational background.
