A third of millennials fail to make it through their three-month probation periods, a human resources expert has revealed.
Greg Weiss helps businesses integrate new workers but admits facing challenges with Generation Y.
He told Daily Mail Australia that millennials regularly under-perform, or are late or absent, and switch jobs often due to social media-induced envy.
Human resources expert Greg Weiss (pictured) has revealed why a third of Gen Y fail to make it through three-month probations. The author of So You Got the Job, WTF Is Next? said the problem of staff dropouts is 'exaggerated for Millennials'
Mr Weiss, founder and director of CareerSupport365, said Generation Y lose jobs because they score 'own goals' or make 'unforced errors', but companies are also not doing enough to keep them.
'The majority of reasons why probation fails is because of their [millennial's] own habits and lack of engagement,' he said.
'Of the reasons for failing, 62 per cent is poor performance, 50 per cent is absence, 25 per cent is lateness and 30 per cent is gross misconduct.'
Mr Weiss said millennials are 'the most connected, informed generation in history'.
'When Baby Boomers started work, there was little information around about an organisation and it was mostly the official line from that organisation,' he said.
He highlighted websites like Glassdoor, which make it easy to see reviews of prospective employers.

'The ubiquitousness of social media has also meant that it's easier than ever to see and learn what other opportunities are out there,' he said.
But Mr Weiss insisted millennials are not lazy and said employers are partly to blame for high turnover by not offering proper training or managing expectations.
It is not only millennials who struggled to make it through probation as up to 25 per cent of employees overall struggle to make it through.
'It's known that the first three months is the time when the new employee is under an intense spotlight,' he said.
'Over half of onboarding programs lasted one week or less... certainly not enough time to successfully embed a new employee into their organisation.
'Unless the relationship is invested in the right ways from the very start, then turnover is more likely.'
Fourty-seven per cent of companies do not have a mentoring program, yet 98% acknowledge that a mentoring relationship would significantly help new employees.
Nearly all (90 per cent) of executives said that retention of new hires was an issue in their organisation, according to a Korn Ferry survey in 2017.
Generation Y will make up 75 per cent of the global workforce by 2025, according to Deloitte.
PwC estimated staff dropouts costed Australian businesses $3.8 billion in lost productivity and $385 million in avoidable recruitment costs in 2015.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
