Startup Founder Revises Burnout Leave Policy to Address Workload Issues
Jatin Saini, founder of House of Creators, introduced burnout leave to help employees manage stress but found that time off alone did not resolve burnout. After six leaves in five months, the company realized that returning to the same workload hindered recovery. To address this, they redistributed tasks among managers and teammates and adjusted deadlines to reduce pressure. Burnout leave now serves as an early warning prompting workplace changes rather than a standalone solution.
