In an increasingly demanding work environment, employee well-being has become a priority. A recent study reveals an alarming reality: 96% of workers in Spain claim to suffer from burnout syndrome. This collective burnout not only affects the health and well-being of employees, but also has direct repercussions on the productivity and success of companies.
What is burnout syndrome?
Burnout is a condition characterized by a state of physical, emotional and mental exhaustion caused by prolonged and excessive stress at work. The most common symptoms include extreme fatigue, insomnia, concentration difficulties, irritability, and a noticeable decrease in productivity and motivation.

Causes of burnout in Spain
There are multiple factors that contribute to burnout in the Spanish work environment. Among them, the following stand out:
- Work overload: Many employees face unsustainable workloads, with long working hours and constant pressure to achieve ambitious targets.
- Lack of control and autonomy: Lack of control over one's own tasks and lack of autonomy in decision making can lead to feelings of helplessness and frustration.
- Lack of social support: A work environment lacking support from colleagues and superiors can significantly increase stress and feelings of isolation.
- Job insecurity: Uncertainty about job stability and economic concerns are factors that contribute to the emotional and mental toll on workers.
Impact of burnout on business productivity
Burnout not only affects employee health, but also has a significant impact on company productivity. Workers suffering from burnout tend to be less efficient, make more mistakes and have higher rates of absenteeism. In addition, employee turnover increases, leading to additional recruitment and training costs.
