Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Sustainability can be considered a global concept that encompasses all aspects of business and the economy. It is not possible to address sustainability without taking into account the human factor, which can suffer from health problems due to the inherent nature of the work and the management of projects that face special challenges. Currently, health problems related to the workforce are intensely discussed, among which job burnout can be considered one of the most serious problems. The results of job burnout have significant impacts on organizations, such as decreased organizational performance through financial and productivity losses. Therefore, it is necessary to seek new approaches and theoretical perspectives that help to better understand the psychological causes of job burnout, and that allow the development of strategies to increase the well-being of workers through a sustainable and responsible work environment.
