Burnout Prevention Workplace Policy
Written rules on workload, time off, and after-hours contact that prevent chronic overload—not wellness posters without enforcement.
A burnout prevention workplace policy codifies workload limits, mandatory time off, after-hours communication rules, and access to mental health benefits—not vague wellness slogans. Policies name who approves scope cuts, how overtime is tracked, and how employees escalate unsustainable projects.
Enforcement matters more than PDF length.
