Nursing staff turnover has remained a challenge to the healthcare sector in India, especially in the private hospitals. Work-life imbalance is one of the factors that have raised as a serious issue that affects job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and retention outcome. This paper reviews the association between work-life imbalance and turnover intention among nursing professionals working in the private hospitals in India. It discusses the long work hours, rotations, shortages of personnel, emotional draining, and the lack of institutional support as the factors influencing the personal well-being of nurses and their professional involvement. The study takes a quantitative methodology with the use of structured questionnaire to be administered to nursing personnel in sampled private hospitals. Workload, scheduling flexibility, supervisor support, family interference, burnout and turnover intention are the variables to be measured and analyzed through statistical tools such as correlation and regression analysis. The results show that work-life imbalance and turnover intention have a high level of positive correlation, and emotional exhaustion and insufficient managerial support are the main intermediary variables. Nurses with irregular shifts and lack of rest time reported to be more stressed and more inclined to find alternative to their employment were more likely to find different jobs. The paper identifies supportive human resource practices as per the need of administrators in hospitals to adopt such practices such as flexible work schedules, proper staffing, wellness programs, and policies that are friendly to families. Attrition rates can be substantially decreased with a healthy work environment being promoted, and this process can be achieved by strengthening the organizational support systems. Through work-life balance, the private healthcare institutions would be able to enhance retention of nurses, continuity of care, and quality of services provision in their establishments. The study has added to the increasing body of work on the sustainability of the workforce within Indian healthcare setting and provided effective implications in policy development and management practices in hospitals.

The paper has particularly focused on the role of married women in household chores and how it impacts their mental health. Several factors have been taken into consideration; like verbal aggression, social isolation, and Internalization of blame , respectively. All these factors have hurt the mental health of women. The issue of women has been described with the help of ‘labelling theory’, where the person tries to withdraw from all the social events and activities due to consistent devaluation and rejection from people. The withdrawal has thereby resulted in constricting social networks with minimal attempts to seek jobs. This study examines the association between unpaid domestic work and the mental health of married women. Unpaid domestic labour, including cooking, cleaning, childcare, eldercare, and emotional management within the household, remains disproportionately performed by women across socio-economic groups. Despite variations in education, employment status, and income, domestic responsibilities continue to be structured around traditional gender norms, positioning women as primary caregivers and household managers. The study investigates how the intensity and distribution of unpaid domestic work influence psychological well-being, stress levels, and burnout risk among married women. The paper has adhered to both primary and secondary data. The sampling technique is purposive, where participants have been selected deliberately. The primary data has been collected through in-depth interviews, which have helped gain deeper insight into the problem. While the secondary data has been effective in gathering the existing problem, with giving shape and an idea about the problem. The findings reveal a significant positive association between hours spent on unpaid domestic work and elevated levels of perceived stress, emotional exhaustion, and reduced life satisfaction. Women engaging in longer hours of domestic labour reported chronic fatigue, irritability, sleep disturbances, and limited personal time. Employed women experienced role conflict and time-based stress due to balancing paid employment with household responsibilities, while unemployed women reported feelings of invisibility, dependency, and diminished self-worth

Justification: In mass consumer goods companies, where productivity demands are high and constant, the presence of employees diagnosed with catastrophic, rare, or orphan diseases underscores the need to analyze the impact of such diagnoses within the workplace environment. Objective: To analyze the diagnosis of catastrophic, rare, or orphan diseases and the prevalence of psychosocial risks, anxiety, and depression, identifying critical vulnerabilities in the work environment. Methodology: A non-experimental quantitative approach with a descriptive scope was employed, involving a population of 78 employees. Data were collected using the Battery of Instruments for the Assessment of Psychosocial Risk Factors, as well as the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI), the Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II), and the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI). Results: Fifty-one percent of the sample presented high psychosocial risk and 49% moderate risk. Additionally, 65% showed high levels of emotional exhaustion, and 63% reported anxiety levels ranging from moderate to severe. Conclusion: The study describes a generalized situation of psychosocial and emotional vulnerability among the evaluated population, in which workplace demands and coexisting health conditions create a risk scenario that may affect well-being and professional performance.

The burnout crisis: Insights from U.S. radiologic science educators.

ABSTRACT Children and youth caregivers in Residential Care are particularly vulnerable to emotional exhaustion, which can impair their responsive care. However, investigation into the processes that contribute to explaining this phenomenon in these professionals is scarce. The present study analyzed the contribution of sociodemographic and professional dimensions (e.g. age, sex, years of education, emotional regulation), contextual (youth-caregiver ratio), and emotional regulation variables in understanding emotional exhaustion. The sample included 212 caregivers from 21 RC facilities in Portugal. Self-report measures included a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Oldenburg Burnout Inventory (OLBI) and the Affect Regulation Checklist (ARC). Hierarchical Multiple Regression showed that being younger, female, having higher education, working longer in an RC facility, having a higher youth-caregiver ratio for those within the educative team, higher dysregulation, and lower adaptative reflection were significant predictors of exhaustion. The results are critically examined in light of their significant implications for the training and supervision of residential care professionals.

Effectiveness of burnout interventions in nursing: A systematic review of systematic reviews with meta-analysis.

The primary aim of the study is to examine the relationship between exposure to violence and occupational burnout among healthcare workers. Additionally, a secondary objective of the research is to investigate differences in perceptions of exposure to violence and occupational burnout across demographic groups. The study adopts a relational research design, a type of quantitative methodology. Data are collected from 361 individuals working in both private and public sectors in Bolu, Düzce, and Zonguldak through a survey technique. The collected data are analysed using the SPSS and AMOS software package programmes and frequency analysis, factor analysis, normality tests, t-tests, ANOVA, and chi-square tests are made. According to the findings of the frequency analysis, the most commonly reported forms of violence experienced are verbal harassment and mobbing/bullying. The factor analysis reveals four factors related to occupational burnout: depersonalization, emotional exhaustion, personal accomplishment, and empathy. The results of difference analyses indicate significant differences between exposure to violence and the dimensions of occupational burnout, with the greatest differences occurring between emotional exhaustion and depersonalization. Furthermore, the chi-square analysis reveals significant associations between exposure to violence and certain demographic characteristics.

This study aims to describe the level of mental burnout among badminton athletes participating in the Pre-Pora competition as a result of schedule uncertainty following the flash floods in Aceh. Schedule uncertainty has the potential to cause psychological stress that can affect athletes' mental readiness, motivation, and performance. This study used a descriptive quantitative approach with total sampling technique on 15 badminton athletes who were undergoing Pre-Pora preparation. The research instrument used the Athlete Burnout Questionnaire (ABQ) with a 1–5 Likert scale covering indicators of emotional exhaustion, reduced sense of accomplishment, and devaluation of sports. Data analysis used mean calculations and level categorization based on Azwar's formula. The results showed that the average mental fatigue score of athletes was 34.06, which was in the low category. In percentage terms, 53% of athletes were in the low mental fatigue category, 47% were in the moderate category, and no athletes were in the high category. These findings indicate that despite the uncertainty of the competition schedule, the psychological condition of the athletes was generally still within controllable limits, but almost half of the respondents began to show symptoms of moderate mental fatigue.

This study examines a psychoeducation based psychological intervention about activist burnout among human rights activists in Aksi Kamisan Surabaya. One group pre test and post test experimental method was employed consisting of 10 activists aged 18 - 25 years, the coordinator of Aksi Kamisan Surabaya, and community members around Taman Apasari, observed during weekly actions. Data were collected using the DASS-42, an activist burnout questionnaire, focus group discussion, semi structured interviews and field observations. Results demonstrated that activists experienced emotional exhaustion, situational anxiety, moral distress, and reduced personal accomplishment. Post interventions results showed increased reflective awareness and improved ability to identify psychological experiences as activist burnout. Levels of stress and anxiety in moderate to high levels, indicated ongoing structural and sociopolitical stressor rather than individual pathology. These results support psychoeducation as a preventive mental health strategy for activists

Burnout has turned into one of the most pressing and measurable problems in the contemporary management of the workforce, specifically in those areas that are most exposed to emotional work-related stress and performance pressure. This review includes the use of scientifically proven behavioral models to predict and prevent burnout with sophisticated workforce analytics. Using the latest interdisciplinary literature, the paper has examined how behavioral science, artificial intelligence, data analytics, machine learning, and federated learning models could be combined to identify early signs of emotional exhaustion, workplace deviance, and disengagement. It identifies leadership styles, organizational culture, employee proficiency, and engagement measures as some of the factors that affect psychological well-being. In addition, the review explains how the job demands-resources theory and established clinical tools, including nomograms, can be used in stress management strategies. With the synthesis of evidence in different organizational and technological contexts, the paper provides a holistic evaluation of how predictive models are changing employee wellness and retention policies in modern organizations.

This study examined the impact of exploitative leadership on talent outcomes through the sequential mediating roles of job insecurity and emotional exhaustion, with perceived organizational support serving as a moderating variable. Drawing on conservation of resources theory and organizational stress frameworks, the research investigated how self-serving leadership behaviors influenced employee psychological well-being and performance-related outcomes. A quantitative cross-sectional design was employed, and data were collected from 301 full-time employees working in corporate and service-sector organizations. Structural equation modeling was used to test direct, mediating, and moderating relationships. The results indicated that exploitative leadership significantly increased job insecurity and emotional exhaustion while negatively affecting talent outcomes. Job insecurity significantly predicted emotional exhaustion, confirming a sequential mediation effect (indirect effect = -0.29, 95% CI [-0.36, -0.21]). Perceived organizational support weakened the negative relationship between emotional exhaustion and talent outcomes, demonstrating a buffering effect. Descriptive statistics revealed that employees reported moderate to high levels of exploitative leadership (M = 3.42, SD = 0.81) and emotional exhaustion (M = 3.35, SD = 0.83), while perceived organizational support was relatively high (M = 3.58, SD = 0.79). The findings highlighted that exploitative leadership undermined talent sustainability by triggering cognitive and emotional strain processes, whereas supportive organizational environments mitigated these adverse consequences. The study contributed to clinical organizational psychology by integrating leadership behavior with psychological stress mechanisms and offered practical implications for leadership development and human resource management strategies aimed at promoting sustainable talent performance.

Exploring the Links Between Workers’ Personal Resources and Emotional Exhaustion During Challenging Times: Anxiety as a Mediating Factor

The article is dedicated to the analysis of vulnerable population groups and the peculiarities of their physical condition amid military aggression. The relevance is driven by the health crisis among Ukrainians caused by war, necessitating biopsychosocial adaptation. The study examines veterans, internally displaced persons (IDPs), children, and elderly individuals, highlighting specific disorders: musculoskeletal injuries, reduced endurance, motor delays, and sarcopenia. Influencing factors include chronic stress, hypodynamia, and disrupted routines. The review of publications points to a shortage of unified rehabilitation programs. Methods involve theoretical analysis, anthropometry, and statistics. Comparative analysis suggests differentiated approaches, such as adaptive sports and recreational games, for recovery and strengthening national resilience. This expanded abstract delves deeper into the context. The research addresses the urgent need to mitigate the destructive impacts of full-scale war on somatic and mental health, viewing physical state as a key indicator of adaptation to extreme conditions. Social factors underscore the growing number of trauma-affected individuals, creating a demand for inclusive, adaptive recovery algorithms. The lack of standardized models in Ukraine's physical culture system highlights a methodological void. By resolving this, the study promotes physical education as a tool for individual health improvement and societal durability. Recent literature analysis reveals intensified efforts in adapting rehabilitation to war-specific traumas, focusing on cardiovascular and respiratory disruptions from prolonged stress. Adaptive physical culture positions exercise as a neuroplasticity enhancer against PTSD. Contributions emphasize inclusive sports for veteran reintegration and recreational methods for IDPs to alleviate psychosomatic issues. Yet, long-term efficacy across demographics remains underexplored, shifting toward sensory and breathing techniques to balance the nervous system. Classification categorizes groups by trauma severity: veterans with amputations and stress; IDPs with fatigue from migration; children with motor regressions from confinement; elderly with exacerbated age-related decline. Factors like cortisol-induced catabolism and breathing irregularities compound issues, forming a "war syndrome" intertwining physical and emotional exhaustion. The proposed program integrates physical, psychological, and social elements, verified through anthropometric and physiological assessments, fostering a holistic approach to national recovery.

The teaching profession plays a central role in shaping educational quality and student development, yet it is increasingly characterized by high job demands and increasing pressures. Against this backdrop, this study examines how individual proactive behaviors (i.e., structural and social job crafting) interact with relational resources (i.e., LMX), to foster teachers’ emotional well-being and professional functioning, drawing on the Job Demands–Resources (JD-R) model and LMX theory. Using cross-sectional survey data from 374 Flemish public secondary school teachers, we investigated the relationships between job crafting, well-being, and performance outcomes, as well as the mediating role of LMX. The results indicate that both forms of job crafting are significantly associated with lower emotional exhaustion and higher teacher enthusiasm and creative performance. Moreover, LMX emerged as a key, yet underexplored, mediating mechanism linking job crafting to teacher well-being and enthusiasm. These findings advance theoretical understanding of how proactive work behaviors translate into positive outcomes in educational contexts and highlight the importance of high-quality leader–teacher relationships. From a practical perspective, the results suggest that encouraging teachers’ job crafting behaviors alongside supportive school leadership may be crucial for fostering sustainable well-being and performance in education.

Respiratory therapists (RTs) face high burnout risk, with rates as high as 79% reported during the COVID-19 pandemic. We hypothesized that the rate of burnout has decreased since the COVID-19 pandemic. We performed a multi-center, multinational study between January 6 and February 1, 2025, evaluating the prevalence of RT burnout. Validated survey instruments were used to measure emotional exhaustion (burnout), incivility, intent to leave, and leadership. We received 1,033 responses (34% response rate). Seven hundred nineteen (70%) respondents were burned out, with 330 (32%) mild, 299 (29%) moderate, and 90 (9%) severe burnout. Statistically significant factors associated with increased burnout risk were work environment (odds ratio [OR] 16.9), intention to leave (OR 13.2), high perceived workload (OR 7.57), incivility exposure (OR 3.92) activities restricted because of illness (OR 3.4), unable to complete all their work for >50% of shifts (OR 2.34), missed work for any reason (OR 1.92), worked 31-50 h in the ICU (OR 1.75), and a bachelor's degree (OR 1.55). Statistically significant factors associated with a lower risk of burnout were: felt valued by their organization (OR 0.15), positive leadership score (OR 0.18), perceived their manager cared about them as a person (OR 0.18), satisfied with pay (OR 0.32), <2 years as an RT (OR 0.42), male gender (OR 0.72), Black or African American (OR 0.51), and more likely to report spending their day doing high value activities (OR 0.68). Emotional exhaustion was reported by 70% of RTs, a modest decrease since the COVID-19 pandemic. RT emotional exhaustion was associated with turnover intentions and missing work, and RT exposure to incivility was a stronger association than workload or demographic variables.
