The Indian workplace is changing — and with it, the definition of success. Long hours, constant deadlines, and digital fatigue have turned burnout into a national concern. A recent India Today survey found that 83% of Indian IT professionals experience burnout, with many working beyond 48 hours a week.

The Real Stressors

• Unrealistic deadlines and “urgent” work culture.
• Sitting all day: Office chairs and screens replacing movement.
• Blurred boundaries: No real pause between work and life.

How Companies Can Help

• Onsite or virtual screenings: Early detection for BP, sugar, and stress.
• Mental-health days: Normalize rest and therapy access.
• Ergonomic redesign: Desks, lighting, and movement-friendly spaces.

Fair policies: Clear limits on after-hours communication.
