dc.description.abstractEnglish: This article reviews research literature on the occupational stress syndromes of burnout and compassion fatigue. Although burnout and compassion fatigue are two distinct syndromes, in human service occupations the risk factors for each syndrome overlap somewhat. This is due to the fact that human service workers are simultaneously confronted with demands characteristic of modern day organisational life, as well as with the emotional demands inherent in their work. Despite this, few studies have concurrently investigated these syndromes. This review therefore aims to highlight the similarities and differences between the antecedents and consequences of burnout and compassion fatigue by examining past and current theoretical conceptualisations of these syndromes.en_ZA
dc.description.abstractAfrikaans: Hierdie artikel bied ‘n oorsig van navorsingsliteratuur oor die beroepspanningsindrome van uitbranding en medelye-uitputting. Alhoewel uitbranding en medelye-uitputting twee onderskeie sindrome is, oorvleuel die risikofaktore vir elke sindroom ietwat in die menslike diensberoepe. Dit is as gevolg van die feit dat werkers in die menslike dienste gelyktydig gekonfronteer word met vereistes kenmerkend van moderne organisatoriese lewe, sowel as die emosionele vereistes inherent aan hul werk. Ten spyte hiervan is daar min studies wat hierdie sindrome gelyktydig nagevors het. Hierdie oorsig mik dus om die ooreenkomste en verskille tussen die antesedente en gevolge van uitbranding en medelye-uitputting na vore te bring deur die vorige en huidige teoretiese konseptualiserings van hierdie sindrome te ondersoek.af
