Description
Studies demonstrate that team members working in a companion animal practice that is perceived to be toxic have higher burnout scores and lower job satisfaction.

The question remains, how do you know if your workplace is toxic?
In today’s episode, we will discuss the features of a toxic environment so that you can identify whether your workplace is toxic. And in a future episode, we will discuss solutions for some of the situations that lead to workplace toxicity.
