More than 3 out of 5 employees have experienced burnout in the past year, results of a recent survey show.
Administered by audit, tax, and advisory firm Grant Thornton LLP, the survey asked 5,000 full-time employees in the United States about their mental and emotional well-being over the past 12 months.
Approximately 61% of the respondents reported having experienced burnout, with 53% of them citing mental and emotional stress as the No. 1 reason. Long hours (42%), workload (42%), and staffing shortages (41%) followed.
In addition, 25% said their mental health had gotten worse in the previous year, while 21% said their physical health had deteriorated.
“Mental and physical well-being concerns are top of mind for employees,” Angela Nalwa, people and organization practice leader and managing director at Grant Thornton said in a press release. “When an organization embraces a culture of well-being, it translates into employees performing at their highest level.”
