A Strategic Sabbatical Can Help Your Employees Survive Burnout
Category: Franchise Development
Michael McFall is the co-Founder and co-CEO of BIGGBY COFFEE as well as author of the Inc. Original book GRIND. 
Work has long been a source of stress, anxiety and tension. According to a Mental Health America report, 83% of survey respondents said they felt emotionally drained from work. An employee survey conducted by Deloitte found that 77% of respondents have “experienced employee burnout at their current job,” and the American Psychological Association reports that “burnout and stress are at all-time highs across professions.”
It’s easy to understand the causes of this. Consecutive pandemic years, shifting work arrangements and social and political turbulence are exacerbating existing factor like the pressure to be “always on,” longer and less productive work times, unmitigated performance expectations and more.
