2019 AABB Annual Meeting Session
With the struggle to maintain work life balance, approximately a third of workers suffer from chronic work-related stress and only 36 percent of employees indicate their employers deal with this adequately. Burnout, a special type of work-related stress, leads to physical and emotional exhaustion that adversely affects mental health and work performance. Suicide among physicians, which is the highest of any profession, is thought to be related to burnout. In terms of the economic impact of chronic work-related stress, it is estimated that approximately $27 billion of work days are lost to mental health absence from the workforce each year. Additionally, there are tangible costs associated with employees reporting to work who are stressed and unable to perform their jobs adequately and the productivity drain that this has on the economy. Human resources teams play a critical role in helping staff cope with work-place stress and burnout by developing wellbeing programs and promoting open communication about mental health issues.
