Robert Half released a new study which found that nearly 4 in 10 working professionals are reporting burnout. The survey of 1,132 Canadian professionals found that the major contributing factors are as follows:

1. Heavy workloads (54 percent),
2. Lack of communication and support from management (29 percent),
3. And, toxic organizational culture (26 percent).

The demographics reporting the highest levels of burnout include:

• Gen Z and Millennials,
• Employees who have been with their company for 2-4 years,
• And, working parents.

The research proposed several strategies for leaders to implement to combat burnout, which included:

• Encourage employees to take time off (22 percent),
• Provide greater schedule flexibility (17 percent),
• And, provide guidance on prioritizing projects (16 percent).
