Research background: The global COVID-19 pandemic created an unprecedented challenge not only for employees' well-being, but also for the nature of their work, as teleworking became the norm for many of them almost overnight. Thus, there is a need to a more fine-grained understanding of the specific job demands experienced while teleworking during COVID-19, and the specific resources that mitigate the detrimental effects of demands and help employees to adopt resilient responses during and beyond COVID-19. Purpose of the article: Drawing upon the job demands-resources model, the present study aims at investigating the link between work overload (a job demand) and employee well-being (i.e., burnout), considering role clarity (a job resource) as a mediator, and task interdependence and self-efficacy as two potential boundary conditions. Methods: In order to examine the link between work overload, role clarity and emotional exhaustion moderated by task interdependence and self-efficacy, we used survey data from 701 Romanian employees at a large information technology company, who worked from home during COVID-19. We employed regression-based path analysis to examine the hypothesized relations. Findings & value added: The results reveal that role clarity partially mediates the relation between work overload and emotional exhaustion while teleworking during COVID-19. Moreover, the results from the moderated mediation analysis show that role clarity, self-efficacy, and task interdependence interact in their effects on emotional exhaustion. This study has important theoretical and managerial implications for employee well-being that go beyond the pandemic. As this study shows, when high levels of workload and task interdependence cannot be avoided, employees' personal (self-efficacy) and job (role clarity) resources might be particularly useful to reduce their exhaustion while teleworking. Based on these results, managers can design better jobs for remote workers and more flexible work arrangements in the future.

The paper presents the results of research on the feelings of professional burnout in teachers of secondary schools. In its first part, a professional burnout model is presented, as well as symptoms and consequences of the burnout process. Then, main sources of burnout, common prevention strategies, and main areas where signs of burnout can occur are discussed. An important part of the paper is formed by the analysis of the results of a survey conducted among 315 teachers in the Lublin and Starachowice districts. It is worrying that, according to the research, every fifth teacher is characterised by very high or high level of the professional burnout feeling. Therefore, the necessity to prepare future teachers – already at the stage of their education – to cope with unusual educational situations and apply strategies preventing professional burnout, turns out to be of particular signifi cance. These issues are reflected on in the conclusions and recommendations for teachers, included in this paper.

To verify the hypothezis four instruments which measured emotional exhaustion, work – family conflict, breach of psychological contract and psychological climate, were used. Results: The research has shown that: breach of psychological contract, psychological climate and work – family conflict have a significant influence on emotional exhaustion in the group of women, but for men a significant predictor of the emotional exhaustion is only work – family conflict.

Głównym celem badania było sprawdzenie, w jakim stopniu wyczerpanie emocjonalne wyznaczane jest przez naruszenie kontraktu psychologicznego, wymiary klimatu psychologicznego (bezpieczeństwo psychiczne i znaczenie pracy) oraz konflikt praca – rodzina. Materiał i metody: Badaniem objęto 154 kobiety i 53 mężczyzn – polskich urzędników. Do weryfikacji hipotez zastosowano 4 narzędzia mierzące wyczerpanie emocjonalne, konflikt praca – rodzina, naruszenie kontraktu psychologicznego i klimat psychologiczny. Wyniki: Badanie ujawniło, że naruszenie kontraktu psychologicznego, klimat psychologiczny oraz konflikt praca – rodzina w istotny sposób wyznaczają wyczerpanie emocjonalne w grupie kobiet, natomiast w grupie mężczyzn istotnym predyktorem wyczerpania emocjonalnego jest tylko konflikt praca – rodzina. Wnioski: Pozytywna ocena klimatu psychologicznego w miejscu pracy może – w przypadku kobiet – przeciwdziałać ich wyczerpaniu emocjonalnemu.
