burnout

GBK English to Italian Social Sciences Social Science, Sociology, Ethics, etc.
Definition from TermCoord:
A compound word of the past participle “burn” and the word “out”, which in this case functions as an adverb. The word describes the difficult situation – in terms of both mental and physical exhaustion – experienced due to specific reasons closely related and deriving from a person’s everyday work. “Burnout” can sometimes be confounded with depression or being overworked. However, burnout bears the characteristics and feelings not only of depression or overwork, but is also characterised by physical and mental exhaustion arising from having to perform professional work tasks.
Example sentences:
When a job is monotonous or chaotic, you need constant energy to remain focused — which can lead to fatigue and job burnout. (Mayo Clinic)
Unfortunately, in contrast to the systemic medical responses that abate epidemics, organizational burnout vectors often go unchecked while suffering employees are left to manage as best they can on their own. (Harvard Business Review)
The truth is, while there are perks to being easily connected, there can be some serious downsides to the increased difficulty of creating clear boundaries between your work and personal life. One study found that being unable to detach yourself from work during non-work time increases chance for burnout and stress, so be wise and mindful and make healthy choices. (Forbes)

Burnout

Definition from Wikipedia:
La sindrome da burnout (o più semplicemente burnout) è l&#039;esito patologico di un processo stressogeno che interessa, in varia misura, diversi operatori e professionisti che sono impegnati quotidianamente e ripetutamente in attività che implicano le relazioni interpersonali.<br />Il burnout comporta esaurimento emotivo, depersonalizzazione, un atteggiamento spesso improntato al cinismo e un sentimento di ridotta realizzazione personale.
Example sentences:
Il burnout è generalmente definito come una sindrome di esaurimento emotivo, di depersonalizzazione e derealizzazione personale, che può manifestarsi in tutte quelle professioni con implicazioni relazionali molto accentuate (possiamo considerarlo come un tipo di stress lavorativo). Generalmente nasce da un deterioramento che influenza valori, dignità, spirito e volontà delle persone colpite. (Psicologia del lavoro)
L’Organizzazione Mondiale della Sanità definisce il burnout come un “fenomeno occupazionale” derivante da uno stress cronico mal gestito, ma specifica che non si tratta di una malattia o di una condizione medica. (Infonotizia)
