About this instrument
The Oldenburg Burnout Inventory (OLBI) is a self-reflection measure designed to explore experiences associated with burnout in the workplace.
This assessment measures two main dimensions:
Exhaustion , which refers to physical, emotional, and mental fatigue related to work demands.
Disengagement , which refers to a tendency to distance oneself emotionally from work, experience reduced interest, or develop increasingly negative attitudes toward one’s job.
The OLBI consists of 16 statements covering both positive and negative work experiences. The results may help you recognize patterns in your current condition and identify areas that may require further attention.
This assessment is not a diagnostic tool and cannot determine whether someone is experiencing a psychological disorder or clinical burnout. The results should be understood as preliminary information for personal reflection.
What it reflects on
- Work Exhaustion
- Work Engagement
How to take it
Below are several statements concerning your experiences at work.
Read each statement carefully and select the response that best reflects your current condition and experience.
There are no right or wrong answers. Please answer honestly based on how you actually feel, rather than how you think you should feel.
Use the following response options:
1 – Strongly Disagree
2 – Disagree
3 – Agree
4 – Strongly Agree
Please make sure that all statements have been answered before continuing.
This assessment is designed to support self-exploration of work-related burnout. The results are not a psychological or medical diagnosis and do not replace consultation with a qualified professional.
