Employee burnout is never because of WFH…it’s only because of extended timing in work….using the travelling time to work now….using lunch and small breaks as work time now…..All because the company wants the employee to be in desk and not enjoy thinking they are paid to sit in home.
I’ve been working from home for over a decade, and love it. I would never go back to an office. Working from home is not burning employees out; way too many meetings that are unnecessary are burning employees out. micro managers just can’t seem to handle the fact that they can’t look over somebody’s shoulder in an office, therefore, they have endless inning meetings. Stop the unnecessary meetings. Burnout goes away. Simple as that.
I, too, working from home, suffered burnout. On top of that, salary cuts on the excuse of not enough work, while the work was only less for three months. Our salaries were cut, but in fact, we should have been paid more because we were burning the resources of our homes; there was just no compensation for that.
As if companies operating in India give a hoot about employee burnout. Employees are just disposable resources for 98% companies in this country with very weak labour laws. Many companies are not even paying salaries for months, with pandemic as the excuse. You really think they’ll spend money to address burnout? Like most other problems in our society, it will be swept under the rug and companies will continue to publish fake, posterized images on Linkedin saying all is well. Indians are also responsible for this. Most have a servant mentality and easily get exploited by corporations.
This is not a fare article, most of us are happy working from home actually
We are happy and more comfortable with work from home
