A short screening questionnaire checking how much work spills into your private life and whether you have time to recover. It takes about 3 minutes to complete.

0 / 8

Instructions

This test will help you look at the balance between your work and private life — how often work cuts into your free time, whether you have room to recover, and who really sets the boundaries.

Answer eight short questions to get a result that you can discuss with a psychologist or psychotherapist.

Important: This test does not replace professional diagnosis. If the lack of balance is strongly affecting your wellbeing, consult a specialist.

Answers stay in your browser until submission. With explicit consent, see your result immediately without an account or email. Saved results link to your browser session, without answers, IP addresses or full browser details. Private access lasts 30 days; daily cleanup deletes expired results from the active database within one day. Analytics needs separate consent; answers, results, email and topics are excluded.

To withdraw storage consent, you can delete the saved result from its result page in the browser where you completed the questionnaire. If that browser session is lost or you open an email link on another device, contact the privacy team for deletion.

This test is for information only and does not replace a professional diagnosis. A disturbed work-life balance is not an illness, but if it lasts long it can lead to chronic stress and burnout. Whatever your result, if you find it hard to regain balance, we recommend talking to a psychologist or psychiatrist.

Common questions

Can this questionnaire diagnose a condition?

No. It is a snapshot based on how you report feeling at this time. It cannot confirm or rule out a condition.

Do I need an email, and how long is my result kept?

No. You can see your result without an account or email. Email is optional, for one requested report. The waitlist has a separate checkbox, unchecked by default. Private access lasts 30 days. Expired results are deleted from the active database within one day of expiry. Backups have separate retention periods described in the privacy policy.

What can I do next?

Choose a small step that suits you. If you are worried, speak with a qualified professional regardless of your score. Related questionnaires are optional and do not provide diagnoses.
