A structural model of student well-being (2014, background): “However, given that lecturers themselves are at risk of developing burnout (Barkhuizen et al., 2014; Barkhuizen & Rothmann, 2008; Mostert, Rothmann, Mostert, & Nell, 2008), their relationships with students might suffer because they might distance themselves from their tasks and from students.”
Burnout among university faculty: the central role of work–family conflict (2018, background): “Work pressure is not only considered a key predictor of burnout in all major models of burnout (e.g. Maslach & Leiter, 1997), but also has been identified as a predictor of faculty stress and burnout (Barkhuizen & Rothmann, 2008; Van Emmerik, 2002).”
Occupational stress, ill health and organisational commitment of employees at a university of technology (2009, methodology): “In this regard, Pillay and Claase-Schutte (2003) mention that South Africa loses billions of rand each year as a result of diminished productivity, absenteeism, medical fees and high employee turnover.”
The Job Demands-Resources model as predictor of work identity and work engagement: A comparative analysis (2011, background): “There have been numerous studies conducted on work engagement in the South African context (Barkhuizen & Rothmann, 2008; Fourie, Rothmann & Van de Vijver, 2008; Mostert, Cronje & Pienaar, 2006), however, there is very little research done on work-based identity in South Africa.”
