What can managers to do reduce stressors that lead to employee burnout?   

What will be an ideal response?


Managers can:

1. Roll out employee assistance programs. Employee assistance programs (EAPs) include a host of programs aimed at helping employees to cope with stress, burnout, substance abuse, health-related problems, family and marital issues, and any general problem that negatively influences job performance.
2. Recommend a holistic wellness approach. A holistic wellness program focuses on self-responsibility, nutritional awareness, relaxation techniques, physical fitness, and environmental awareness.
3. Create a supportive organizational climate. Wherever possible, it's better to keep the organizational environment less formal, more personal, and more supportive of employees.
4. Make jobs interesting. Try to structure jobs so that they allow employees some freedom.
5. Make career counseling available. This reduces the stress that comes when employees don't know what their career options are and where they're headed.
