Burnout is everyone's problem

Burnout isn't just about working too hard; it's a widespread problem rooted in job design and workplace culture. Nearly a quarter of US employees report feeling burned out often, leading to health risks and billions in lost productivity. Organizations that fight burnout successfully reduce unnecessary demands, give people more control, and build strong systems of support. Small wins at work and a sense of purpose can help restore energy, but lasting change starts with redesigning how work gets done.
