Burnout is quite common among salon professionals, and it’s not difficult to see why. Salon professionals perform numerous services, often under a tight schedule. But while burnout may appear to be solely related to the job, the truth is that it is more complicated than that. Some people are more prone to burnout, and it helps to understand the internal causes as much as the external causes. This course examines how to identify burnout, how it occurs, and what can be done to prevent it. Learning more about the social and professional risk factors may not solve every problem, but it can put professionals on a better track toward wellness without having to quit their job. This course is worth one credit hour and can be taken at your own pace from a computer or your mobile device.
