Book excerpt: Abstract: The purpose of this study was to examine social workers’ burnout experience while working with children, youth, and families during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study focused on the association between perceived stress, technological changes, job satisfaction, and demographic characteristics with social worker burnout experience. Burnout experience was measured utilizing the 22-item Maslach Burnout Inventory for Human Services (MBI-HSS) and its three subscales measuring three domains of burnout including emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and personal accomplishment. Perceived stress was measured utilizing the 10-item Perceived Stress Scale. This research reported several key findings. Study participants who experienced greater stress also experienced higher burnout in emotional exhaustion, personal accomplishment, depersonalization, and in the overall burnout scale. Social workers who used email more during COVID 19 experienced higher burnout in personal accomplishment. Finally, social workers with greater job satisfaction had lower burnout levels in emotional exhaustion, personal accomplishment, depersonalization, and in the overall burnout scale.

This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This quantitative survey study examined stress/burnout and job satisfaction in a sample of 108 social workers in rural Mississippi using the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) and Abridged Job Description Index (AJDI). The research examined the prevalence of stress/burnout among mental health social workers employed with the Mississippi Department of Mental Health. The research focused primarily on the relationship between burnout and job satisfaction and the degree to which levels of burnout and satisfaction were associated with demographic characteristics. Results of this study showed that 36.1% of respondents reported a high level of emotional exhaustion, 6.5% reported high levels of depersonalization, and 27.8% reported high level of personal accomplishment. Multiple dimensions of job satisfaction were found to be associated with burnout; emotional exhaustion was a particularly strong predictor of low job satisfaction. No significant differences in burnout and job satisfaction were found between men and women. Levels of burnout and job satisfaction were not related significantly to respondents' age, marital status, or years of experience. Bachelor-level social workers scored higher on both emotional exhaustion and depersonalization than Masters-level social workers. A significant difference between African-Americans and Caucasians was found for general job satisfaction. Social worker certification, years of social work experience, and education level were related significantly to satisfaction with opportunities for promotion. Caseload was associated with differential levels of job satisfaction, but not in a simple linear pattern: the lowest levels of job satisfaction were found among social workers with moderate caseloads (21-30 clients).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers an extensive look into the ways living through the COVID-19 pandemic has deepened our understanding of the crises people experience in their relationships with work. Leading experts explore burnout as an occupational phenomenon that arises through mismatches between workplace and individuals on the day-to-day patterns in work life. By disrupting where, when, and how people worked, pandemic measures upset the delicate balances in place regarding core areas of work life. Chapters examine the profound implications of social distancing on the quality and frequency of social encounters among colleagues, with management, and with clientele. The book covers a variety of occupational groups such as those in the healthcare and education sectors, and demonstrates the advantages and strains that come with working from home. The authors also consider the broader social context of working through the pandemic regarding risks and rewards for essential workers. By focusing on changes in organisational structures, policies, and practices, this book looks at effective ways forward in both recovering from this pandemic and preparing for further workplace disruptions. A wide audience of students and researchers in psychology, management, business, healthcare, and social sciences, as well as policy makers in government and professional organisations, will benefit from this detailed insight into the ways COVID-19 has affected contemporary work attitudes and practices.

Book excerpt: Burnout is a feeling of exhaustion that leads to negative effects for those experiencing it. These feelings of exhaustion and depersonalization are common in social workers, and were only exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic. Feelings of burnout can lead to health problems for the social worker, and increased odds of a negative outcome for their clients. This study aimed to answer the question: does the average Masters of Social Work (MSW) student experience burnout? Using the Maslach Burnout Inventory for students, 36 respondents were found, on average, to not be suffering from burnout. One limitation of this study may be its small sample size. Implications of these findings are discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wherever people are working, there is some type of stress—and where there is stress, there is the risk of burnout. It is widespread, the subject of numerous studies in the U.S. and abroad. It is also costly, both to individuals in the form of sick days, lost wages, and emotional exhaustion, and to the workplace in terms of the bottom line. But as we are now beginning to understand, burnout is also preventable. Burnout for Experts brings multifaceted analysis to a multilayered problem, offering comprehensive discussion of contributing factors, classic and less widely perceived markers of burnout, coping strategies, and treatment methods. International perspectives consider phase models of burnout and differentiate between burnout and related physical and mental health conditions. By focusing on specific job and life variables including workplace culture and gender aspects, contributors give professionals ample means for recognizing burnout as well as its warning signs. Chapters on prevention and intervention detail effective programs that can be implemented at the individual and organizational levels. Included in the coverage: · History of burnout: a phenomenon. · Personal and external factors contributing to burnout. · Depression and burnout · Assessment tools and methods. · The role of communication in burnout prevention. · Active coping and other intervention strategies.

Book excerpt: The COVID-19 pandemic has brought to light significant health disparities that have existed in society for decades. Studies exploring the mental health implications have only just begun to emerge. This study sought to understand the experience of burnout among parents during the COVID-19 pandemic. Using a mixed-methods research design, this study analyzes fifteen focus group discussions with school staff (n=22) and parents (n=20) conducted between December 2020-March 2021 in English and Spanish. The study also analyzes a cross-sectional survey administered in 2 waves (February and March 2022) of parents' pandemic experiences (n=541) conducted in English (n=382) and Spanish (n=159). Participants were drawn from school sites in California located in zip codes of high social vulnerability according to the California Healthy Places Index. Participants in the focus groups expressed substantial COVID-19 fatigue and discussed experiences of structural barriers, misinformation, social stigma, and trauma. Analysis of survey responses revealed that burnout was significantly associated with structural barriers and misinformation. These findings support that COVID-19 can be understood as a traumatic event increasing burnout these findings support emerging that COVID-19 can be understood as a traumatic event increasing burnout.

Book excerpt: "Burnout, one of the primary reasons why committed social workers leave the profession, is a grave and pervasive problem with glaring impact. Those entering social work and all related fields, as well as those already deeply involved, must be educated about its toll and prepared to address and prevent the depletion it causes. This book provides valuable insights for all who carry complex and divergent responsibilities.

This resourceful guide offers clarification, direction, and opportunity for reflection to help students and professionals in social work, related fields, and beyond find balance in their personal and professional lives as well as ease work-related stress to better serve clients-and, in this way, achieve professional equilibrium, success, and personal fulfillment.
