Facts about employee burnout & prevention

Companies without systems to support the well-being of their employees have higher turnover, lower productivity, and higher healthcare costs. (Burnout is About Your Workplace, Not Your People, Harvard Business Review)

A 2022 study found that one in three working Canadians felt burned out. Symptoms include the inability to focus or make decisions, anxiety, exhaustion and cynicism. (Employee Burnout is Getting Worse, Employers Have Work To Do, Globe and Mail)

Companies that take measures to support employee wellbeing have seen their productivity improve by an average of 13%. (The Next Frontier of Workplace Culture, Boston Consultant Group)

Cognitive neuroscientists found that creating art reduces cortisol levels (markers for stress), and that through art people can induce positive mental states. (Brain Research Shows the Arts Promote Mental Health, University of Calgary)

On the effects of art therapy on stress of employees, research shows the level of cortisol over twenty-four hours and also the state of anxiety decreased significantly. (Effects of art therapy on stress and anxiety of employees. https://doi.org/10.2478/v10046-010-0020-y)
