  • Description:
    Our work environments have a significant impact on our well-being. Stress, strain, or interpersonal challenges for workers can cause both physical and psychological impacts, including burnout (5). It is well known that burnout has been an ongoing crisis in health care, reaching peak levels during the COVID-19 pandemic. A study of health workers by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) compared self-reported mental health symptoms in 2018 with 2022, before and after the onset of the pandemic (4). The study included patient-facing health care workers as well as support staff and public health workers. Nearly half of health workers (46%) reported often feeling burned out in 2022, up from 32% in 2018. However, health workers who reported positive working conditions, such as trust in management, were less likely to experience poor mental health symptoms and burnout.
