An international study undertaken on behalf of work management app Asana has found that 77 per cent of Australians and New Zealanders experienced burnout while working from home in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic. This compares with 71 per cent of respondents globally. The study also found that working from home resulted in more employees putting in longer hours, yet productivity was negatively affected. Jim Stanford from the Centre for Future Work contends that working from home is not sustainable.

Many Australian employees are mentally detached from their work. Recruitment firm Robert Half conducted a study of 300 CFOs and finance directors which shows that 49 per cent of small to medium businesses detected “inner resignation” among employees. Large organisations reported up to 54 per cent of workers being in this category. Robert Half Asia Pacific senior MD David Jones advises companies to take steps to re-engage workers, as poor morale has a negative impact on productivity.
