| Tiivistelmä: | Anecdotal evidence suggests that the escalated workload of the public accounting "busy season" is a major contributor to employee "burnout." Academic research on the psychological impact of the busy season workload, however, is virtually absent from the accounting literature. The authors partially address this void by employing a longitudinal design and structural equation modeling to examine the causal impact of the busy season workload on public accountants' job burnout-a dysfunctional stress syndrome. Prior to the start of the busy season and again at its end, the authors measured hours worked, role stressors, and job burnout for a sample of public accountants from a national firm. |
