Can I ask to reduce my workload due to burnout?
Yes, many companies recognize the impact of burnout and may offer solutions like reducing workload temporarily.
If you're feeling overwhelmed and approaching burnout, it’s important to address it with your manager before it affects your performance. Approach your manager or HR with a detailed explanation of how the current workload is impacting your well-being and productivity. Suggest ways to temporarily reduce your workload, such as delegating tasks, adjusting priorities, or even taking a short leave. Many companies understand the importance of employee well-being and are willing to make adjustments to prevent burnout, which in turn improves overall performance and morale.
