Germany is Europe’s economic powerhouse.
However, “a substantial portion of the German workforce is burned-out or nearing it, and this is costing Germany billions of euros in lost productivity each year“, a recent poll by Gallup suggests. The results show that at least 4.1 million German workers have experienced mental or emotional stress at work.
