The entry of generation y into the job market has brought up numerous discussions about how young people from this generation act in group relationships, focusing on hypotheses such as being overconfident, disloyal and fickle (Matttewman, 2012). In view of this, the aim of this study is to provide knowledge and elucidation on how young people from generation y establish bonds of cooperation and solidarity in group relationships. This will contribute to the academic and business community, which can use the information to help their education and work formats in organizations, as well as to the scientific community by recording these perceptions for future studies. The methodology is based on a Case Study based on Yin (apud DUARTE, M. Y. M; 2008) with a theoretical and qualitative approach according to Demo (apud DUARTE, J; 2008) in which a Focus Group was applied to people from generation y, x and baby boomers in a group of professionals from a municipal and intercity passenger transport company in Gravataí and in a group of friends from generation y to understand what factors they take into account to establish bonds of cooperation and solidarity in the groups they are part of.
