If you’ve decided 2023 is the year you’ll find a new job, make sure you’re not pursuing a bad situation. A recent study revealed that 40 percent of employees are burned out, and this condition comes with myriad physical and mental problems including anxiety and depression. If you’re considering a new position, there are a few red (and green) flags to look out for. In the interview process, ask how managers deal with their team members’ mental health. Are they trained to recognize the signs and symptoms of burnout? Also ask about the organization’s culture. Is overworking valued, or is a healthy work-life balance encouraged? Ideally, you want to find an organization with managers that will support team members, check in with their staff, and communicate openly about mental health issues. “Senior leaders who walk the talk, speak openly or vulnerably about their mental health journey, or how they used coaching or counseling and benefited from it, normalize the conversation around mental health in the company,” says Dr. Oliver Suendermann, clinical director of Intellect, a Singapore-based mental health support startup. Suendermann continues, “therefore, they encourage employees to do the same and take better care of their mental health.”
