69% of Employees Said They Experienced Burnout in 2023

Sixty-nine percent of workers experienced burnout in 2023, a 6% decline from the previous year based on a recent survey.

According to a report published December 18 by isolved, entitled “HR Trends of 2023 report,” 71% of responders said burnout impacted their work with 45% claiming they’re not as enthusiastic as they could be, while another 26% said they only performed their required responsibilities.

Employers providing paid mental health days was found to be the best way to address burnout. Employers offering resources to minimize the risk of burnout was cited as the second-best way to solve the issue.

The report also found that almost half of all workers (49%) were planning to explore other employment options in 2023, which is up from 45% in 2022.

High turnover rates seem to be related to workers’ hopes of moving up within their organization because over a fifth of those surveyed (21%) said that they didn’t feel they had any more room to grow with their current company. Meanwhile, 59% of interviewees said they believe their employers could do more to help them advance their careers.

Workers are also willing to make sacrifices for a better employment experience because a majority of responders (77%) said that they would be comfortable with their employers examining their personal data (gender, race, age location, email patterns, etc.) if it created an improved working environment.

“Leaders need to keep a close eye on employee experience in 2024,” said Celia Fleischaker, the chief marketing officer of isolved. “This year’s report found that one of the top reasons employees are not satisfied with their current role is because they’re underwhelmed by their company’s culture. Successful businesses are focusing on creating and maintaining employee experience that meets employees’ needs and wants. Creating employee experiences that matter is great for business.”

A total of 981 U.S.-based full-time employees across numerous industries were interviewed online in October 2022 for the HR Trends of 2023 report.
