Employee burnout is one the most serious impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic leading to attrition and a sense of purposelessness among working individuals. According to a report by UserTesting, a leader in video-based human insight, one out of two Indian employees is currently looking for a job change due to burnout triggered by long remote working hours.

Burnout is the pandemic's unrecognised health epidemic and has been a significant impact on working professionals, organisations and larger communities. As per the report, while 50 per cent of the country's workforce stated workload as a major factor leading to burnout, 20 per cent stated work-life imbalance and 15 per cent stated monotony as the prime cause of their stress.
