Perceived Self-Efficacy as a Mediator of the Relationship between Presenteeism and Employees’ Burnout

Open access
Employees’ well-being is crucial for employers to take care of as the condition of employees could always translate into work performance. Presenteeism has received an increasingly attention from practitioners and researchers due to constant debate whether the act of coming to work despite being ill; would contribute a positive or negative impact for the employers. There exist notions that suggest that constant presenteeism could lead to employees’ burnout. However, this paper discusses the role of perceived self-efficacy as mediator to the relationship between presenteeism and burnout.
