They found that occupational stress was connected to emotional exhaustion and depersonalization, which means feeling emotionally drained and detached from work. On the other hand, it was negatively associated with personal accomplishment, resulting in feeling like you're not achieving much at work.\r\n\r\nAfter taking into account factors like age, education, and other characteristics, the research discovered that high job strain, which is a combination of high demands and low control at work, increased the risk of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization. Female workers who experienced a high effort-reward imbalance, feeling like their efforts were not adequately recognized or rewarded, also had a higher risk of depersonalization.\r\n\r\nAdditionally, female workers who felt high levels of overcommitment, meaning they put excessive pressure on themselves to excel, were more likely to experience emotional exhaustion and depersonalization. However, having a strong social support system at work reduced the risk of emotional exhaustion.\r\n\r\nOverall, the study found that job burnout among female manufacturing workers is significantly related to their occupational stress.
