This scenario, in turn, is associated with problems such as Burnout syndrome, depression, anxiety and chemical dependency. In the region of Uruçuí-PI, significant business growth in recent years driven by the technological revolution has intensified the exploitation of workers' time, negatively affecting health and social balance. The study raises the issue of what consequences professional burnout can have on young people who work actively in the professional environment in the city of Uruçuí? Given this reality, the importance of investigating levels of professional burnout among young people working in the local job market was identified in this study. Concepts and characteristics related to time were presented, in addition to exploring the experiences of these young people. The research used a quantitative and descriptive approach, with data collection carried out through structured questionnaires. The results highlighted that the appreciation of humanization in work relationships contributed to the balance between productivity, quality of life and health, however, many young employees present alarming emotional burdens in relation to demands for results in the work environment, which in a certain way affect their lives outside the professional environment in a meaningful way.
