From Detection to Action: How AI Enhances Workplace Wellness
Burnout is on the rise. It is more critical now than ever that company leaders have a solid pulse on employee sentiment.
Burnout can manifest in different ways across workforce segments, requiring tailored solutions. As Aniline's Pamela Cohen, PhD, behavioral scientist and Chief Research and Product Officer, recently explained to Forbes, "while the emotional toll of burnout impacts both men and women, the expression of stress is starkly different between the genders."
Internal surveys only tell part of the story. With advances in AI technology, more and more companies are leveraging innovative methods to detect and address burnout among employees.
“Research is making it easier to spot and handle burnout. […] Aniline is already using AI to gather and analyze how employees feel [...] to predict stress and burnout. [B]y integrating AI into HR systems, companies can continuously check how happy and engaged employees are, alerting managers about possible issues with workload or team dynamics before they lead to burnout.”
