Israeli Study Reveals Persistent Burnout Despite Work-from-Home Flexibility
A recent study conducted by Dr. Irene Diamant at the Academic College of Tel Aviv-Yafo, in collaboration with the National Insurance Institute, has highlighted the persistent issue of burnout among workers in Israel, despite the flexibility offered by work-from-home arrangements. The study surveyed 5,504 workers across various sectors, including high tech, education, and the public sector, revealing that nearly half of the participants experience high levels of burnout. Surprisingly, the study found that remote work does not alleviate burnout and may even exacerbate it due to blurred boundaries between work and personal life. Hybrid workers, while enjoying more organizational resources, face similar burnout levels as office workers due to increased demands and work-home conflicts.
