Libraries are ushering in sweeping changes that involve the closing of branches and reference desks, wholesale dumping of print, disappearing space, and employment of non-professional staff to fill what have traditionally been the roles of librarians. Increasing workloads, constant interruptions, ceaseless change, continual downsizing, budget cuts, repetitive work, and the pressures of public services have caused burnout in many information professionals.Managing Burnout in the Workplace concentrates on the problem of burnout, what it is and how it differs from chronic stress, low morale, and depression. The book addresses burnout from psychological, legal, and human resources perspectives. Chapters also cover how burnout is defined, symptom recognition, managing and overcoming burnout, and how to avoid career derailment while coping with burnout.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eAbout the authors\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 1: What is burnout?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbstract:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhat is burnout?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Factors contributing to burnout\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbstract:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndividual and socio-demographic factors\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEnvironmental and organizational factors\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 3: Burnout and information professionals: how we got this way\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbstract:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSources of workplace stress\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 4: Are information professionals burned out?: Research and opinion\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbstract:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eResearch and opinion\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 5: How burnout is measured in the workplace\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbstract:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBurnout survey instruments\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 6: Burnout: the legal perspective\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbstract:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBurnout, stress, or post-traumatic stress?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePower imbalance between employees and employers\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCanada\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eUnited States\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eUnited Kingdom\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 7: Gender, burnout and work-related stress\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbstract:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGender, burnout and work–related stress\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 8: Symptom recognition and preventing burnout\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbstract:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhat the employee can do: burnout prevention in six job domains\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhat the employer can do: burnout prevention in six job domains\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 9: Managing and overcoming burnout\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbstract:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion: the joy of burnout\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Personnel \u0026amp; human resources management [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Personnel \u0026amp; human resources management\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Personnel%20\u0026amp;%20human%20resources%20management%20%5BKJMV2%5D%22\"\u003eKJMV2\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Freshly Printed Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46648112808216,"sku":"9781843347347","price":50.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9781843347347_40c530e6-2902-4180-b1ae-4fe06a5b59fd.jpg?v=1694585446","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/managing-burnout-in-the-workplace-a-guide-for-information-professionals-paperback-9781843347347","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
