Impact of Organizational Climate on Employee Burnout in an Industrial Company

Modern working conditions and the current economic situation are forcing employers to pay more attention to the organizational environment and its impact on workers’ life. This research aims to identify those components of the organizational climate that contribute to mitigating employee burnout in the industrial sector. The theoretical part of the work is devoted to the analysis of scientific publications on burnout and organizational climate, key concepts and diagnostic measurements. An empirical quantitative study was conducted in a large company in February-March 2022, with 915 respondents surveyed. The results of multiple regression analysis showed that transformational leadership has a significant impact on reducing the feelings of exhaustion, cynicism and alienation; organizational clarity and ethical standards contribute to minimization of cynicism, and good work organization helps to reduce exhaustion. We came to the conclusion that the company's responsibility should not be limited to psychological assistance to employees and wellbeing programs, serious changes are needed in the organization of work and other aspects of the organizational climate to decrease employee burnout.
