TL;DR

The story at a glance

Statista published a statistic on the share of people experiencing burnout or emotional exhaustion in the Netherlands in 2022, broken down by industry, based on a large-scale survey. The IT sector is noted as having the highest rate among employees, but specific figures for all industries are not publicly visible due to a paywall. This data comes from April 2023, with the survey covering 61,019 respondents aged 15-74 via computer-assisted web interviews.

Key points

Details and context

The statistic focuses narrowly on burnout prevalence by industry, using self-reported data on burnout or emotional exhaustion from the prior year. Statista notes the source does not provide original survey wording, so phrasing may vary slightly.

No exact numbers are visible without access, and secondary sources do not report specific percentages from this chart. One academic paper claims higher burnout in education than hospitality, care, or construction, but does not cite figures.[[2]](https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/00131911.2024.2392585)

Paywall limits utility; free users see only placeholders like " percent" overall and " percent" for IT.
