Burnout Self-Assessment
15 statements across 3 areas. Answer honestly — nobody sees your individual answers, and nothing you submit is linked to your name. This is a standalone reflection snapshot; it is not the same as a workshop intake, though both begin with the same burnout statements for consistency.
How this tool was built
Every statement in this tool was written specifically for The Burnout Clinic. Nothing here is taken, copied or paraphrased from a licensed or copyrighted questionnaire.
The three areas it looks at — emotional exhaustion, mental distance from the work, and professional efficacy — come from the way burnout is commonly described in the open academic literature and in the World Health Organization's ICD-11 description of burn-out as an occupational phenomenon. That framing is a shared concept, not anyone's property.
The scores and bands are descriptive language for reflection. They are not validated cut-offs, they carry no clinical meaning, and they cannot tell you whether you have burnout. This is a screening and reflection tool only.
Your anonymous responses are combined with everyone else's from your organisation. Hanlie reads the emergent themes across the group — never individual answers — and uses them to design a bespoke programme for your team.
Emotional Exhaustion
How depleted your energy reserves feel right now.
By the time work is done, there is very little of me left over.
My batteries do not seem to recharge, even after time off.
The thought of the day ahead already feels heavy before it starts.
Being around other people at work takes more out of me than it used to.
I am running on reserves rather than energy.
