Generation Y is the new generation after generation X that can be classified as a person who was born between 1980’s and 1990’s. This generation is the new generation or known as millennial who will fully enter the workforce and lead the organization. The objectives of this study are to get better understanding on the generation Y behaviour at the workplace. A generation has been defined as a cluster of people who shares both the same birth years and significant life events.So, a generation arises with the birth rate increase and ends, when it drops and it represents a group who have a similar world view grounded in defined society or historical events that have occurred during that generation's development year. Followers of this specific thought discuss that those who grow up in different time periods have very different sets of beliefs, values, attitudes and expectations which in turn impact their behaviour generally and in the workplace. There are four generational groups in the time spanning more than 60 years: Traditionalists, Baby Boomers, Generation X and Generation Y, with the latter three being the primary generations. Despite all the variations in how they are described in the literature and how their start and end dates are categorized, there are some common thought among practitioners and academics about how these different generations are characterized and on the consequences of this for the way they are managed Generation Y, which is the most technically literate, educated and ethnically diverse generation in and at the graduate level there has been considerable interest not only in attracting, and retaining this talent but in developing it as well, is the latest generation in the workplace. At the same time, there have some indications that this generation of graduates plays a great deal of importance on personal development and continuous learning.
