Understanding Burnout Risk
Burnout is an officially recognized occupational phenomenon by the WHO, characterized by energy depletion, increased mental distance from work, and reduced professional effectiveness. It builds up gradually — which is why self-assessment is a useful early-warning tool.
This calculator scores four key risk factors — weekly hours, stress level, sleep, and leisure — and converts them to a 0–100 risk score with a color-coded rating and recovery tip. It's a reference tool, not a clinical diagnosis.

Consistent sleep, scheduled leisure, clear work-life boundaries, and regular check-ins with yourself. Don't wait until you're running on empty.
This tool measures common risk factors. If you consistently feel exhausted and detached despite a lower score, consult a mental health professional for an accurate assessment.
