Effective Strategies to Target Burnout: Interview by Dr. Baker / Doctor's Orders 1320 AM/ 103.9 FM

Dr. Maria Espinola was a guest speaker on the Doctor's Orders radio show. Dr. Espinola and Dr. Baker discussed how to target burnout in the workplace, what works and what doesn't. Too many organizations still haven't recognized the need to target burnout. And too many of those that do are not using effective strategies. Gallup found that fewer than one in four U.S. employees feel strongly that their organization cares about their wellbeing -the lowest percentage in nearly a decade.
Data from Gallup’s new State of the Global Workplace report showed that stress among workers around the world reached an all-time high. Employees are reporting feeling more stressed now than they did in 2020.
Workers who feel their organization cares about their wellbeing achieve:
- Higher customer loyalty, profitability and productivity
- Lower turnover, absenteeism and safety incidents
