Business English (Wednesday Class) - Optional Homework

The topic of this week's lesson is 'Job Satisfaction'. To get you thinking about the topic, here are a couple of things for you to do if you would like.

First, a questionnaire you can do online to rate your own job satisfaction. http://www.careerpath.com/career-tests/job-satisfaction/ Warning - this site asks you for your personal details AFTER you've filled in the questionnaire but BEFORE it gives you the results. If you don't want to give your personal details, don't do this questionnaire. It gives you the results on the site, so I'm not sure why it wants your email etc.

Here's a simpler Job Satisfaction questionnaire which doesn't ask for your details: http://humanlinks.ws/orgsn/job_satisfaction.htm

Next, here are two articles on a related theme, burnout. These are both about burnout in social workers:

This is a longer article on the same theme: http://www.communitycare.co.uk/articles/14/01/2013/118826/empathic-social-workers-at-higher-risk-of-burnout-and-stress.htm

See you tomorrow!
