The problem of workload and work stress affect the level burnout experienced by a person. Job stress has a relationship with the increasing demands of the workload. Prolonged work stress with unstable emotional conditions will indirectly trigger a decrease in work competitiveness. All types of stress are basically caused by a person's lack of understanding of each other's capabilities. When someone does not know their capabilities, this triggers the occurrence of symptoms related to work stress.
