An Australian Council of Trade Unions (ACTU) commissioned national poll of workers has found that 39% reported feeling burnt out at work.

It also found that half the workforce — around 7.3 million workers — “regularly work extra hours or do overtime”. It said more than 28% of all workers report high workloads “regularly or always experienced”. Only half of those surveyed (54%) felt they had enough people in their workplace to get the work done.
