In English, the expression "brownout" corresponds to a drop in voltage, a power cut. This is what people experiencing a brown-out feel: they lack energy and don’t find meaning in their work. [They are] looking for meaning in [their] professional activity and [do] not share the company’s values. 1, record 1, English, - brown%2Dout
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 CONT
Burnout and brownout can be difficult to differentiate since they share common manifestations with similar determinants. Brownout is more difficult to discern because it is a factor of mental resignation and where the question of work values are central.... the major and abrupt transformations imposed by the onset of the [COVID-19] health crisis and its prolonged nature increased the risk of brownout. The deterioration of working conditions gave rise to the emergence of inner conflicts, both the "desire to save and the impossibility of doing so"...,... the perception of a loss of interest in work, and the impression of a situation with no end in sight... 2, record 1, English, - brown%2Dout
