The term was coined in 2022 by Marisa Jo Mayes on TikTok under the username "itsmarisajo" in response to occupational burnout from the Sunday scaries, hustle culture, and worker exploitation.

Bare minimum Monday has been criticized as an antiwork effort and that employee disengagement could lead to termination of employment. Bare minimum Monday is not compatible with company cultures that promote presenteeism.

It is more prevalent among Generation Y and Z employees and is considered a form of quiet quitting.
