So proud of the Yerbo team for this amazing piece of content. I hope that everyone in tech gives this a look and is able to start seeing that they need to take action when it comes to burnout.

@shivam_jha3 Thanks so much for saying that, I've just shared it with our designer and she's very happy right now :) I hope it was insightful too, any feedback let me know!

@francisco_mendes oh yes it was! i did the test and got a 2.6~ it was super helpful because i sometimes would mistake exhaustion as burnout. and the test helped me identify that! https://burnoutindex.yerbo.co/ - for anyone looking to check out their burnout risk!!

Thanks for the hunt, Jeffrey! Any stat that surprised you?

@marsnegrette the big one was around 2 in 5 workers showing signs of burnout. Aside from that one, the more granular one around women being 46% at "high-risk" of burnout is pretty shocking, too.

This is so cool and informative!! Really nicely done and points to a serious issue. We’re just at the beginning of the mass adoption of remote work and we’re still learning about what burnout looks like and how to prevent it and help others avoid it.

@pavla_bobosikova Totally agree Pavla! There are 1000 million of knowledge workers, most of them are going to be working remote somehow during the next 10 years, and we need an approach to systematically tackle burnout.

This seems really great! Is it available in other languages?

@alejandra_cienfuegos I know that the team speaks Spanish & Portuguese. @francisco_mendes would you have it in different languages?

Thanks for tagging me in @jefffermin! Hi @alejandra_cienfuegos the report is available in english only for now, but let me know if you have any specific language you'd like to see it in, or if there's any particular insight that you'd like to have in spanish/portuguese and I'll see how best to help you!
Alejandra Cienfuegos
@jefffermin @francisco_mendes Thank you for the answer Francisco. I was thinking of sharing this in my newsletter and my audience is in Spanish, so if you will have it in that language I may better wait ☺️ The data is very interesting 🙌🏽

As someone who was struggling with this at times, I found your study very insightful. Also, beautiful website! :)

@danischenker Thank you Dani! Every time that someone avoid learning a bit more about Burnout because the content seems awful, we lose the chance to bring mental wellbeing around that person. It's our call.

Looks like a very useful resource!

This report really resonated with me. It described much of my experience at a previous job that I just wasn't able to understand at the time. No questions here, just a thank you for doing this work and spreading awareness/understanding of burnout. I'll be sharing it myself.

@adam_janower Thank you Adam! Gain awareness to share a common language on Burnout is the first step to move toward the direction of creating the most importan Future of Work, one that is source of mental health to everyone.
