The effect of technological unemployment anxiety on employee burnout
Özet
In this research, the effect of technological unemployment anxiety
on employee burnout has been examined. Structural equation modelling
method was chosen to analyse multidimensional models with both direct and
indirect interactions. The hypotheses have been tested by using structural
equation modelling method. As the result of the analyses performed, out of
nine hypotheses, six of them were supported. It has been empirically proven
that lack of technical skill has a direct effect on emotional exhaustion and
depersonalisation, incremental technological improvements have a direct effect
on all dimensions of burnout and emotional exhaustion is directly impacted by
technological disruption. Although employee burnout is a subject that has been
researched for years, this research is an original study investigating how
the burnout perception of employees is affected within the framework of
technological advances. Therefore, research demystifies the mechanism behind
employee burnout linked to technological unemployment anxiety.
