New research indicates that European IT workers are experiencing high levels of work-related burnout, with nearly 75% affected. The study by ISACA found that heavy workloads and tight deadlines are major contributing factors, with 60% and 44% of respondents citing these issues, respectively. Additionally, nearly half of the workforce reported that poor management is adversely affecting their wellbeing. Although almost 90% have engaged in certifications, the majority lack mentorship, with only 15% having a mentor despite the recognition of their importance. Experts suggest that creating mentorship and training opportunities could improve job satisfaction and workforce resilience.
European IT workers are facing significant stress and burnout, with almost three-quarters reporting work-related exhaustion due to heavy workloads and deadlines.
Companies must ensure that the tech workforce feels supported, motivated, and invested in, as skilled employees are in high demand.
Creating mentorship programmes and investing in training can relieve pain points and improve employee fulfillment, leading to a more motivated and productive workforce.
While many IT professionals enjoy their work for its problem-solving aspects, they also highlight significant areas for improvement in workplace support and management.
