The State of Burnout 2024 study

The term "burnout" has gained significant attention in recent years and rightly so. Research from think tank Infinite Potential shows a steady climb in rates of burnout across the global, across industries, and even across most age groups. The results from the study have been discussed on several podcasts, HR magazine articles and was a showcase presentation during the Queensland Mental Health Week.


Via Infinite Potential, we invite your organisation to participate in this year’s ‘The State of Burnout’ study. Headed up by Dr. John Chan, Managing Director, this year’s study will continue the journey to better understand and create actionable insights for organisations to help create healthy, sustainable careers for their people.


This year’s study will expand the research to include:


  • Explore the relationship between psychosocial risks and hazards and burnout
  • Examine the link (if any) of burnout with isolation / loneliness as it relates to work environments.
  • Investigate the growing trend of burnout being experienced by younger workers
  • Continue exploring the relationship between burnout and various work situations (e.g., home vs workplace, 4 vs 5 daywork week, etc.)


Your organisation’s participation in this study is easy and will be supported by Infinite Potential. Your people will be asked to complete a survey which will take around 6-10 minutes and can be done on a computer or mobile device. The survey is completely anonymous and responses will be treated with the utmost confidentiality. Data collected will only be used for research purposes and no individual data will be shared in any way. The overall results from the study will be published in February 2024. There is an option for your organisation to receive a tailored report of just your organisation.


If you’re interested in further discussions or details about the study, please contact John Chan directly > john.chan@infinite-potential.com.au

Dear Andrea Red hair, braces, bad skin, long and lanky, you were not really made to be a confident cool kid. Looking back on those photos, I actually am surprised to see you are not as ugly as you thought you were. You sure did have some bad haircuts and those perms were very ill advised. However, Adam and the Ants still makes you dance like crazy so it was not all bad.
