Emotional Exhaustion
Emotional exhaustion is a state of feeling emotionally drained and depleted of emotional resources. To prevent this, ensure regular self-care, set professional boundaries, and engage in stress-reduction activities.
Depersonalization
Depersonalization involves a sense of detachment from one's work and clients. Prevention includes fostering workplace empathy, maintaining social support, and seeking meaningful personal interactions.
Reduced Personal Accomplishment
A reduced sense of personal accomplishment is feeling like one's work is not making a difference. Encouraging positive feedback, setting realistic goals, and celebrating small wins can help prevent it.
Work Overload
Work overload is when the demands of the job far exceed one's capacity. To prevent burnout, prioritize tasks, delegate when possible, and promote a work-life balance.
Lack of Control
Feeling a lack of control over one's work contributes to burnout. Empowerment through participative decision-making, personal agency in task management, and flexibility can mitigate this.
Insufficient Rewards
Receiving insufficient rewards for one's effort can lead to burnout. Improving compensation, recognizing efforts, and offering professional development opportunities are preventive measures.
Breakdown of Community
A breakdown of community means a lack of support and camaraderie among colleagues. Building a strong team culture, encouraging collaboration, and creating social events can prevent this.
Absence of Fairness
An absence of fairness at work, such as bias or injustice, can lead to burnout. Implementing transparent policies, ensuring equity, and addressing grievances promptly are ways to combat it.
Conflicting Values
Conflict between personal values and job demands can cause burnout. Aligning work with personal values, finding purpose in tasks, and ethical business practices help in prevention.
Lack of Social Support
A lack of social support from peers and management can exacerbate burnout. Encourage team support networks, mentorship programs, and access to counseling services.
Work-Life Imbalance
An imbalance between work and life responsibilities can lead to burnout. Encouraging flexible scheduling, remote working options, and promoting time off can serve as prevention.
Mismatched Job Role
A mismatch between an individual's skills and their job role can cause burnout. Ensure proper job fit through tailored training, reassessing job roles, and providing opportunities for role change.
