# CPL Burnout - Hybrid Source Dossier

Status: active source dossier for the new Livrable2 prototype.

## Target Reader

Primary reader: occupational medicine / workplace health practice.

Expected use:

- consultation with a worker presenting exhaustion, disengagement, cognitive fatigue, sleep degradation, or loss of work meaning;
- SPST discussion with employer, HR, management, CSE/CSSCT or prevention actors;
- work-situation analysis before, during or after sickness absence;
- DUERP / RPS prevention discussion for administrative, intellectual, project, support, management and service work.

The prototype must not be a hospital-worker burnout chapter. Healthcare sources are allowed as high-exposure evidence, but administrative and intellectual work are the editorial center of gravity.

## KG Contribution

The KG is used as an organizing and caution layer. Main retained clusters:

- burnout as a psychological syndrome / condition associated with chronic occupational stress;
- central dimensions: emotional exhaustion, cynicism or depersonalization, reduced professional efficacy / accomplishment;
- Job Demands-Resources: long-term imbalance between demands and resources;
- Conservation of Resources: stress rises when resources are lost, threatened, or fail to regenerate after effort;
- demands: workload, time pressure, cognitive/emotional effort, interruptions, role conflict, digital burden, moral dissonance;
- resources: autonomy/control, supervisor support, team support, recognition, staffing/time resources, worktime control, clarity, recovery;
- methodological caution: many findings are cross-sectional or self-reported; association must not be written as diagnosis or simple causality;
- prevention direction: organizational and participatory approaches, combined with individual support when symptoms are already present.

Excluded or demoted KG clusters:

- COVID/healthcare clusters as general doctrine;
- biological risks, alcohol, accidents, infectious exposure and other off-topic seeds;
- patient-safety consequences except as a sector-specific illustration;
- claim IDs and internal evidence metadata in reader-facing prose.

## Chunk Contribution

The prototype uses directly inspected chunks and source families, not claim cards alone.

Core source families retained. Count for the current prototype: 11 scientific articles/reviews, 5 local institutional or professional resources, plus the KG structuring layer. Titles and references below are taken from local DEBBY/chunks/caches/metadata, not from web lookup.

## Editorial Thesis

Burnout is not simply "too much work" and not simply "a fragile person". In occupational medicine, the useful question is: what work system is consuming more human regulation than it regenerates?

For administrative and intellectual work, burnout often appears when high cognitive demand, permanent availability, fragmented attention, weak decision latitude, ambiguous priorities, insufficient recognition and poor recovery become chronic. The worker keeps producing, but increasingly by borrowing from sleep, private time, emotional reserve, attention and meaning.

## Required Prototype Structure

The prototype must include:

- a concrete administrative/intellectual opening case;
- scientific definition without diagnosis by employer;
- hybrid model: demands/resources, COR, control/recovery, recognition/support;
- discussion of healthcare-heavy evidence as useful but non-generalizable;
- specific section for occupational medicine: consultation questions, confidentiality, work-situation hypothesis, employer-facing translation;
- tools for administrative/intellectual work: signal map, consultation guide, work-redesign levers, 30-day SPST/employer action sequence;
- differentiated roles, not cloned role sheets;
- explicit limits: association vs causality, screening vs diagnosis, no individual blame, no universalization from healthcare.

## Quality Gates

Before delivery, audit must verify:

- no paragraph template repetition;
- no internal pipeline vocabulary;
- no reader-facing claim IDs;
- no dominance of healthcare examples;
- no wrong `pd` interpretation;
- no generic tool usable unchanged for every RPS topic;
- each major practical recommendation anchored in at least one source family above or stated as expert synthesis.
