Occupational Imbalance

Occupational imbalance occurs when a person's daily activities are unevenly distributed, leading to a lack of fulfillment or well-being. For example, spending too much time at work and not enough on leisure or rest can cause stress or dissatisfaction. Conversely, spending too little time on meaningful activities may result in boredom or decreased health. Achieving a healthy occupational balance involves appropriately dividing time and energy across various activities like work, rest, socializing, and self-care to support physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
