A STUDY ON THE BURNOUT LEVEL AMONG THE EMPLOYEES AT NEST CYBER CAMPUS BANGALORE
Abstract
Burnout is basically a stress induced problem prevalent among helping professionals like social-workers, nursing staff, employee-relations executives, teachers and law enforcing functionaries. People in helping profession like doctors, counselors, police officers and nurses also have greater probabilities of burnout (Maslach 1982). Burnout does not occur suddenly but begins with small warning signals and most of the time one can not pin point the exact cause. As said by Lee and Ashforth (1988) through their longitudinal study on supervisors and managers, burnouts develop on phases.
