We had a restucture at work 18 months ago. Management told me my workload would be more manageable. I was mislead as most of the staff left after this and I had to pick up work no-one else knows how to do so my workload increased and got worse.
The team split into 2 teams. One of the tasks I have had to cover for the other team for a year due to staffing issues and I am always behind on my work. They are now fully staffed and are resistant to take this work back even though it is in their remit.
This week some auto generated letters information requests came in from suppliers. I am going to have to ignore them because I have no-one to delegate to. I felt anxious, depressed and stressed. My supervsior can't help anymore as he is burnt out after covering a long term member of staff who was off sick for 3 months as the manager refused to get a temp.
The team burnt out as we still have to pick up the slack now this member of staff is back as they have another job elsewhere. Also a person in another team has ignored multiple emails from me about a task so I will have to escalate this to management as it is stopping me doing my job.
The organisation does not care about staff wellbeing as they would resolve the issues. Other teams get new job posts created all the time yet still delegate THEIR work to us.
Anyone else cut corners to protect their mental health? I need to do this as the workload is unmanagable as the organisation won't help me.
