Having a work-life balance is a growing priority for many workers. It has come into even sharper focus as employees learn how to live with the pressure brought by the protracted coronavirus pandemic.
Despite widespread shifts in working arrangements to hybrid models, many employees have reported burnout as they learned to adapt to the new normal. Women, in particular, cite increased stress.
Deloitte's Women @ Work 2022 report indicated that 53% of 5,000 women surveyed in 10 countries say their stress levels are higher than they were a year ago, and almost half feel burned out. Nearly 40% say burnout is the main reason they are actively looking for a new employer.
