The survey, conducted by YouGov and commissioned by Bankrate, polled 2,449 adults across the U.S. in February.
The survey found that nearly 42 percent of Generation Z workers, ages 18-25, and 40 percent of millennials, ages 26-41, have shared their salary information with a co-worker or other professional contact. In comparison, 31 percent of workers in Generation X, ages 42-57, and 19 percent of baby boomers, ages 58-76, have shared salary information with a co-worker or professional contact.
Experts have attributed the openness to broader generational shifts about work and money, according to Bankrate.
“Younger workers are really rewriting the script here,” Bankrate analyst Sarah Foster told CNBC. “The workplace landscape is much different for these younger workers and all this is adding up to reshape the workplace environment.”
