Managing burnout in the workplace: A guide for information professionals (Chandos Information Professional Series)

摘要

Workplace burnout is a subject on which many books have been written, particularly in industries such as emergency services and health. In contrast, this book focuses solely on the information industry. The authors, both with library and legal backgrounds, differentiate stress (associated with over-engagement at work) with burnout (disengagement at work) and describe symptoms associated with staff burnout, such as high levels of leave, cynicism, withdrawal and sometimes physical symptoms that can result in workplace accidents.
