SESSION DESCRIPTION
While employee engagement is often seen as beneficial, excessive engagement can harm organizations. Overworked employees may experience burnout, leading to higher turnover, absenteeism, and reduced productivity. Organizations may also face increased healthcare costs and lower innovation. Sustainable engagement strategies must balance motivation with employee well-being to prevent long-term organizational harm. Key takeaways include:
- Burnout Increases Turnover – Over-engaged employees may leave due to stress and exhaustion.
- Absenteeism and Productivity Decline – Chronic stress leads to disengagement, poor customer-focused outcomes, and lost workdays.
- Higher Costs – Increased healthcare expenses and recruitment costs impact profitability.
- Innovation Suffers – Exhausted employees struggle with creativity and problem-solving.
