Summary/Abstract: The study analyses the issue of occupational burnout in the context of selected regulations of Polish labour law. The author presents the notion of occupational burnout and its causes – in particular those which, from a legal perspective, are of the utmost significance. On the one hand, the study identifies the legal regulations that may help reduce occupational burnout (e.g. prevention of mobbing and employment instability, the right to rest, fair compensation, or safe and hygienic working conditions) and, on the other hand, those legal solutions which, according to the author, may potentially trigger or exacerbate occupational burnout (in particular certain institutional working time arrangements and forms of employee monitoring and assessment).
