Burnout is the accountancy profession's quiet liability


Stress, absence and burnout cost UK businesses £28 billion a year — and few professions feel it like accountancy. Research from CABA, the chartered accountants' charity, found that 67% of accountants experience stress in their careers, and 41% say burnout has become normalised in the profession.

You already know why. Compressed filing deadlines, January self-assessment, audit busy season, MTD change on top of the day job — and a talent market where every good accountant who walks out the door is harder and more expensive to replace.

In a practice, the numbers are unforgiving: every day lost to sickness is lost chargeable time, and every resignation puts client relationships at risk. Most firms underestimate their exposure until it shows up in recovery rates, missed deadlines or a key resignation. This free assessment gives you a clear, honest picture of where your risks lie — before they hit the bottom line.
