Burnout Cost Calculator for Professionals
Use this free burnout calculator to estimate the annual financial impact of burnout across productivity, career and influence. Answer 20 questions in around five minutes, with no sign-up required.
The interactive assessment requires JavaScript.
How does this burnout cost calculator work?
The calculator combines your pay information with 20 self-reported answers on a 1–5 scale. Annual salary is converted to an hourly rate using 52 weeks of 40 hours. Productivity estimates use 48 working weeks; career and influence estimates use fixed scoring assumptions. Recovery and identity responses adjust the combined result.
The result is an illustrative estimate, not a medical diagnosis, a clinical screening test or a prediction of actual lost earnings. Categories may overlap, and a high result does not prove that you have lost that amount of money.

A burnout cost calculator estimates the potential financial impact of work-related exhaustion and reduced performance. The APEX calculator uses your pay information and self-reported answers to show illustrative annual figures for productivity, career and influence.
Is the burnout cost calculator accurate?
Your result depends on your answers and the model’s fixed assumptions. It is an illustrative estimate, not an exact measurement of financial loss or a clinically validated burnout test. Use it as a starting point for reflection, not as a diagnosis or financial forecast.
Is this burnout calculator free?
Yes. The assessment and your on-screen results are free, with no sign-up or credit card required. Receiving your results by email is optional.
Who can use the burnout assessment?
The calculator is intended for working adults, including employees, managers, senior leaders, specialists and founders. It estimates work-related financial impact and is not a clinical screening tool.
How is the cost of burnout calculated?
Your pay information is combined with answers about energy, focus, emotional resilience, career, relationships, recovery and identity. The model estimates productivity, career and influence costs using fixed scoring assumptions, then applies an adjustment based on recovery and identity responses.

Email delivery is optional. Our Privacy Policy explains what information is collected, how it is used, the services involved and how to exercise your data rights.
What if my burnout cost score is high?
A high result reflects your answers and the model assumptions, not a medical diagnosis. If exhaustion, stress or other symptoms persist, consider speaking with your GP or a qualified healthcare professional. You can contact Verde Vitae on WhatsApp for coaching enquiries.
