Abstract


This study aims to analyze the ideal efforts to overcome burnout among health workers and recommendations after the Covid-19 pandemic. The research was conducted using a qualitative approach with data collection techniques in the form of documentation studies. Results The documentation study found that health workers faced various pressures during their service during the COVID-19 pandemic. Burnout occurs because of an imbalance between abilities, skills and available resources with the needs and demands of the job. Burnout is recognized as a problem in all healthcare systems. So that in addition to its adverse effects on the physical and mental health of personnel, fatigue reduces efficiency, organizational commitment, self-esteem, civic behavior, creativity, innovation, and quality of nursing services.
