They want to get it on while on the clock.
Gen Z might be less sexually active than other age groups, but there is one thing that is turning many of them on: in-office sex.
Yes, it seems that those born between 1997 and 2012 aren't opposed to doing the deed in a conference room.
With many return-to-office mandates happening all over the country — but especially in major cities — according to a new survey from EduBirdie, 29% of Gen Zers believe that working in an office can improve their sex lives since being away from their significant other can make them miss each other more.
However, others don't seem to want to wait to get home to satisfy their sexual needs, as originally reported on by Fast Company.
To take things a steamy step further, the study revealed that 38% of Gen Z would love a private space in the office for getting it on — either with a co-worker or by themselves.
While many of these young workers are looking for ways to keep things spicy while working a mundane office job — others surveyed are just fine doing it in the comfort of their homes.
47% of Gen Z workers who work remotely admitted they're prioritizing sex more since it's easier to find the time for it.
Regardless of where people are getting some hanky panky in — something that many workers wish their employer would grant: instead of sick days, Gen Z, millennials, Gen X and baby boomers all want to be able to take 'sex days' — paid or unpaid.
''Sex days' [are] dedicated time off for intimacy, health, and related needs,' explained researchers from ZipHealth, an online pharmacy, in a report from earlier this year.
The survey analyzed 800 staffers and 200 managers across various age groups, and the study authors found that 'Half of the employees who had taken [a sex day] reported a noticeable boost in their productivity afterward…hinting at the potential organizational advantages of embracing sexual wellness initiatives.'
In-office sexcapades, taking days off for intimacy — how times have changed and gotten spicy over the years in corporate America.
And as taboo as taking a day off for some sexual pleasure sounds — it turns out that 60% of employees feel that if they prioritize their sex lives more, it could possibly reduce burnout or absenteeism, according to ZipHealth.
