burnout

Introduction

Introduction Job Burnout, also known as "job burnout", means burnout and burnout, and can also be translated into burnout. It refers to a state of physical and mental exhaustion under the weight of work. Feeling tired of work is a feeling that physical and mental energy is exhausted by work. It usually occurs in a service occupation with frequent and close contact, because continuous work stress and negative emotional experience can cause mental exhaustion and consumption. Occupational exhaustion can be manifested as physical fatigue, depression, creative exhaustion, reduced sense of value, and negative attitudes at work can affect the entire state of life.

Cause

Cause

1. The social environment factors and the accelerated pace of life

Occupational exhaustion results from a specific environmental atmosphere. The acceleration of social change, the increasingly fierce competition, and the accelerated pace of life are one of the reasons for the exhaustion. The development of modern Chinese society has brought opportunities and challenges to modern professional people. The intensification of competition and the increase of unstable factors have caused tremendous pressure on modern people's psychology. Western developed countries have also experienced such psychological conflicts when the economy is developing rapidly. Swedish researchers surveyed employees of 20 to 40,000 different companies and found that employees who are growing rapidly (over 18% annual growth rate) have long been sick due to illness (more than 90 days) and hospitalized The ratio is the highest, especially for women workers.

2, competitive pressure

The competition between enterprises follows the natural law of Darwin's survival of the fittest and the survival of the fittest. It has a strong sense of crisis for people at different levels within different enterprises or in the same industry. In addition, the difficulty of employment in modern society is increasingly prominent, and the job is It is not easy to get it, so that employees at all levels are more cherished, and work is more diligent, and some people who are difficult to adapt and have a strong sense of crisis are more likely to experience occupational exhaustion.

(1) Working mechanism. In-house policies are inflexible, long-term stability and balance, fixed life patterns and work done by the fixed-point work orders have lost their own attractiveness, work has become boring, there is no interest in work. People also have burnout . In addition, if the mechanism is rigid, employees can't participate in decision-making, lack of promotion channels, poor communication between senior management and grassroots, and poor welfare, which will aggravate the exhaustion of employees' occupations. In addition, the establishment of various personal evaluation mechanisms within modern enterprises, such as personal sales performance, business inspection, performance-based compensation, etc., increase the psychological burden of employees to varying degrees.

(2) Excessive work requirements. The competition among enterprises is becoming increasingly fierce. Due to the needs of the development of enterprises, the requirements for the members are increasingly strict. According to the "Report on the Growth and Development of Chinese Entrepreneurs in the Year of the Year", in 1997, the average working time of entrepreneurs was more than 12 hours, and young entrepreneurs aged between 31 and 40 worked longer. Within the modern enterprise, too much work load is one of the reasons for the exhaustion of occupation.

(3) The vicious circle of overtime culture. Overtime work is a potential rule for most foreign-invested and private companies. Long hours of overtime seriously damage the physical and mental health of employees, and most professional people lose their original enthusiasm and enthusiasm for work. If the exile of this phenomenon will only lead to the emergence and spread of mental exhaustion.

(4) The imbalance of psychological contract. When companies are recruiting new employees. I am eager for newcomers to take on their responsibilities and exert their personal abilities in their positions. When they find that employees are unable to adapt to the requirements of their jobs in actual work and operation, it means that improper selection of enterprises will lead to an imbalance of employees' psychological contracts. For employees, the company does not give the expected benefits or other rare promotion opportunities, which leads to a decline in enthusiasm for work.

3, personal factors

(1) The gap between personal value assessment and reality. If the personal evaluation is too high or too low, when the actual situation and the personal expectation gap are large, the original high target can not be realized, it will cause great changes in psychological emotion, and it is easy to lead to burnout.

(2) Lack of rational personal career planning. Today, with the increasingly prominent employment conflicts, college graduates do not rationally analyze and objectively plan their careers. They do not realize that it is difficult to find a professional counterpart when entering the society. It is in line with personal interests and hobbies to develop their personal strengths. When I officially set foot on the post, I realized that I was "wrong on the wrong sedan", so I was so overwhelmed by the new work that I couldnt adapt to it. The pressure from all sides would make my body and mind dry and my energy exhausted.

(3) Distortion of the value concept of enterprise employees. Maslow's need for hierarchy theory points out that the highest level of human needs is the realization and respect of self-worth. In reality, in the face of the temptation of a lot of money and fame and fortune, most of the professional people lost their self-worth, and gained wealth for the achievement of the overdraft.

Influencing the factors leading to occupational exhaustion, in addition to the above-mentioned main factors, there are other factors, such as the mixed work and family roles, the conflicts between the top and bottom roles in the work, other cultural factors within the enterprise, the rules are unknown, and the powers and responsibilities are unclear. The confinement of the work environment will adversely affect the psychology of employees.
