Not a bad week. A long pattern.

YOUR OWN ANSWERS

Where the pressure is coming from

The supplied burnout model reworks a named clinical instrument, so ONU does not reproduce its scoring. These five questions are about your own situation, and what they give you is something to say out loud — to a clinician, a manager, or someone you trust.

ONU does not publish a score for this area — the supplied model has unresolved gaps, and a number with no settled meaning would be worse than none. What this gives you is a sheet to take to an appointment.

What you walk away with

Three things, in about five minutes.

01

The three dimensions, described plainly

Exhaustion, mental distance from the work, and reduced sense of effectiveness. Seeing them separately is usually the moment it makes sense.

02

What your recovery signals are showing

Resting heart rate, heart-rate variability and sleep consistency describe load over weeks. They are supporting context, not a verdict.

03

A clear line between stress and something more

Burnout and depression overlap and are not the same. Where the honest answer is professional support, that is what you get told.

What it looks at

Nothing hidden behind the result.

How work feels

  • Energy depletion and exhaustion
  • Mental distance or cynicism about the job
  • Sense of effectiveness at work

Everyday signals

  • Recovery time
  • Support available to you

Sleep, resting heart rate and heart-rate variability from your connected wearable.

How it works

Three steps. No sign-up to begin.

  1. 01

    Describe the pattern over weeks

    A single hard fortnight is not burnout. Duration is the distinguishing feature.

  2. 02

    Read the signals as context

    Trends in sleep and recovery are evidence about load, not a measurement of how you feel.

  3. 03

    Decide what needs to change

    Some of it is workload and boundaries. Some of it needs professional support, and that is not a failure.

What this is not.

  • ONU does not publish a score for this area. The supplied model has unresolved gaps, and a number with no settled meaning would be worse than none.
  • The supplied model adapts a named clinical instrument with altered item grouping. Reproducing it needs instrument rights and clinical review first.
  • No burnout score, stage or severity is produced. Burnout is not a medical diagnosis.
  • If you are struggling with your mental health, speak to a qualified professional. If you are in crisis, contact local emergency services.
