Benefits to Business

The Cost of Burnout

Burnout is very common among individuals who do "people-work". It results from chronic workplace stress that has not been successfully managed. It is characterised by feelings of energy depletion or exhaustion, increased mental distance from one's job, and reduced professional efficacy.

Absenteeism and presenteeism caused by unsupported mental health conditions in the US result in a loss of 217 work days and $17 billion every year.

Workplace stress and burnout leads to:

  • Increased risk-taking behaviour, including problems with alcohol and tobacco
  • Emotional issues
  • Health concerns — many employees take extra sick leave, and some illnesses such as lower back pain or headaches may directly result from work-related stress
  • Absenteeism
  • Job dissatisfaction
  • Job turnover

The ROI of Resilience

Research shows that resilient people are more motivated, productive, and efficient at their jobs. Resilience improves workers' perception of and ability to cope with stress, they are less susceptible to burnout, and they are healthier — resulting in decreased absenteeism, family-related crises, presenteeism, and health care costs.

Social support has consistently been shown to help buffer against the negative effects of stress and anxiety. Facilitated discussions on mindfulness, reflection, and shared experiences have been found to increase empowerment and engagement, while decreasing burnout, depersonalisation, and emotional exhaustion.
