Burnout; The True Cost
Burnout is costing individuals, their health & their experience of life- unmeasurable.
Burnout is also costing businesses- $322 billion dollars globally; a 2019 estimate by the World Economic Forum.
The Covid-19 global pandemic exacerbated the health trend that were already emerging and its manifestation in the world of work as ‘the great resignation’ & ‘quiet quitting’ were no exception. These may be vastly different behaviours describing the workforce’s response to the rapidly changing states of the economy but they stem from the same underlying systemic issue; The way we work isn’t working – not for the employees & not for the employers.
At the heart of it – is Burnout; a work-related phenomenon included in the International Classification of Diseases (11th revision -ICD11) by the World Health Organisation (WHO).
With a multifactorial etiopathogenesis, there is more to it than just an outcome of ‘heavy workload’.
