Abstract This commentary argues that future burnout research will benefit from adding two perspectives. First, as depersonalization may result from insufficient recovery during off-job time, it will be fruitful to include the investigation of off-work experiences into burnout research. Second, adding a day-level perspective will shed more light on the burnout phenomenon.
