The Role of Workload and Job Demands in Employee Burnout among Healthcare Workers in Saudi Arabia

Abstract

The research examines the complex relationship between work-life balance, workplace stress, and employee burnout to develop viable solutions. A detailed literature study and empirical analysis examine how job expectations and work-life balance affect employee burnout and how to prevent it. The quantitative research of the survey collects and analyses data from questionnaires and other statistical methods given to employees at healthcare organisations in Saudi. Flexible working hours and thorough health programs alleviate these worries, but research indicates that high job demands increase employee burnout. The paper recommends improving employee support services and promoting a healthy workplace. The paper analyses the strategies' pros and cons, implementation costs and timelines, including financial constraints and change resistance. This research advances the field by revealing how employee pleasure affects corporate production. By advising employers on work-life balance and burnout, it boosts productivity and reduces turnover. The study's findings provide the groundwork for workplace wellness research and practice, affecting businesses and policymakers.
