Abstract

The study focuses on the complex association that exists amid burnout and work demands across several industries. Burnout is a common problem that affects many occupations. It includes sentiments, alienation, and decreased individual success. The study explores how role conflict, expressive labour, capacity to work nonstop, and other particular work burdens in the fields of information technology, healthcare, and education lead to burnout. Through a review of current empirical research, the report illustrates how various job demands affect burnout in each field. Burnout risk is increased in the healthcare industry by strong emotional demands and excessive workloads, particularly during times of crisis like the COVID-19 epidemic. Due to their high workloads and unclear roles, educators might become burned out, which affects both their performance and job happiness. Rapid technological advancement and cognitive demands present particular strains in the IT industry that contribute to burnout.
