By Annalisa Gorringe, In Time Tec: Workplace burnout has become increasingly common in recent years. The impact of burnout on both people and businesses has gotten a lot of attention lately. Specifically, the well-known and widespread “Great Resignation” refers to the roughly 33 million Americans who have quit their jobs since the spring of 2021. In order to minimize employee turnover, leaders must know what workplace burnout is, how to identify it, and how to alleviate or avoid it.
What is workplace burnout?
Workplace burnout is a type of work-related stress that refers to a state of physical or emotional exhaustion. It also involves a sense of reduced accomplishment and loss of personal identity.
According to American Psychological Association, nearly 3 out of 5 employees reported negative impacts of work-related stress, including lack of interest, motivation, or energy (26%) and lack of effort at work (19%) in 2022. Meanwhile, 36% reported cognitive weariness, 32% reported emotional exhaustion, and an astounding 44% reported physical fatigue—a 38% increase since 2019.
