[...] Thus, after analyzing the different factors that favor burn-out, it is necessary to delve deeper into the different theories of experts in management sciences and psychology, analyzing the mechanisms at play between stress or stressors and the individual's resources, allowing a better understanding of the potentially provocative situations of burn-out. 3. Transactional theory of Lazarus and Folkman Since 1984, the Lazarus and Folkman model or 'cognitive evaluation model' is very interesting, as it allows understanding the processes of adaptation to stressful situations and thus understanding how an individual can react to stressful situations.

[...] Karasek then defines a classification of professional activities into 4 categories: - The strained work, which concerns jobs where the workload is high and the margins of control are low (example: worker, cashier, host/hostess - The relaxed work, which concerns jobs where the workload is low and the autonomy of decision-making is high (researcher); - The active work, which concerns jobs where the workload and autonomy is high (senior public official, business leader - The passive work, where the workload is low and the autonomy of decision-making is low; It is mainly employees in tense work who are most at risk of being confronted with the situations of 'job strain', leading to chronic stress, a source of professional burnout. Finally, it is worth noting that a questionnaire based on the Karasek model has been created. It is currently a reference questionnaire in human resources that allows evaluating work health and perceiving burn-out risks. It allows employees to be questioned about the different dimensions mentioned. Bibliography Barnhill, J. W. (2023, August 3). State of acute stress.
