Answer to Question 1

Research shows that prevacation workload is associated with lower health and well- being for both men and women. The prevacation homeload (work that must be done at home prior to going on vacation) has the same negative impact on women. What you do on vacation appears to make a difference. If one detaches and enjoys activities with family and friends, then vacation can improve health and well-being, even after one returns home. There is one caveat, however. High postvacation workloads tend to eliminate the positive impact of a vacation within about one week.

Answer to Question 2

Sometimes the pace and pressure of an occupation is too much for a person to bear.
In this case, the result may be burnout, which is a state of physical, mental, and emotional exhaustion as the result of job stress. Burnout is most common in the helping professions, such as police work and social work. Furthermore, during times of economic uncertainty, companies keep employee numbers small, resulting in greater workloads for all and a greater risk of employee burnout. However, burnout does not affect all people in certain professions. Vallerand (2008) has proposed that this is related to the type of passion one experiences about one's work. Obsessive passion, characterized by problems disengaging from one's work, leads to conflict and burnout. Harmonious passion (not being compelled, but instead doing something freely) leads to greater job satisfaction and lower rates of burnout.
