Burnout is an occupational phenomenon resulting from chronic workplace stress. This article, the first in a two-part series on the topic, discusses how to distinguish burnout from other conditions, the stages involved and the consequences of burnout. The second article, to be published in a subsequent issue, will highlight the risk factors that point towards the syndrome and how to assess, prevent and address the condition.
