Presenteeism and Burnout

Recognising the signs and taking action

Presenteeism (working while unwell or disengaged) and burnout (physical and emotional exhaustion) feed off each other in today’s always-on work culture, with remote working and constant connectivity often making both worse. The consequences can be serious for organisations, leading to lower productivity and higher turnover. For individuals, the negative impact on wellbeing and relationships is a problem. The solution begins by recognising warning signs early and establishing healthier work boundaries.
