What’s the Cost of Burnout?

Often time leaders wonder how much burnout costs their organization.

Before we break down how much burnout costs your organization, here are some other burnout stats to be mindful of:

According to our research 79% of the workforce is in burnout
Monster.com recently reported that 95% of the workforce is thinking of leaving their job. The #1 reason cited? Burnout
AI at Work study conducted by Oracle and Future Workplace reported that 76% of employees still say their organizations should do more to prevent burnout.
Gallup says burned-out employees are 63% more likely to take a sick day and 2.6 times as likely to be actively seeking a different job.
FlexJobs surveyed 1500 respondents and 56% say that their HR departments did not encourage conversations about burnout.
Gallop reports that managers are just as likely, if not more so, than individuals to suffer frequent or constant burnout
Flex Jobs reports 76% say workplace stress affects their mental health.

There are the hard costs of burnout, and there are also things that are hard to measure but are still being impacted by burnout. For instance…
