Is Workplace Burn-Out Harming You?

by | May 30, 2019 | Pro

Over half of the work force is experiencing work place burn-out. This statistic is way up from 20 years ago when the stats were 18%. Now it is closer to 50%.

The World Health Organization describes burn-out as ‘chronic workplace stress that has not been successfully managed’. Burn-out is now officially a dis-ease. WHO says, ‘Burn-out will become globally recognized in 2022, giving healthcare providers and insurers precedent to acknowledge, treat and cover symptoms of ‘burn-out’. The WHO continues to say the following are the three defining symptoms.

> feelings of energy depletion or exhaustion;

> increased mental distance from one’s job, or feelings of negativism or cynicism related to one’s job; and

> reduced professional efficacy

These symptoms are only related to occupational or work situations, not anything about personal issues.

In the Technology world, the people who experience work place burn-out the most are mid-executive women.

These women see the attainment of harmony in the work/life relationship as nearly impossible. Nearly, but not totally, impossible.
