Abstract

The mental health of SME leaders is a growing field of research. Numerous findings suggest that while entrepreneurs often appear to have better mental health, they face significant mental workload challenges. These include long working hours, recurrent stress, high uncertainty regarding orders, and isolation. These conditions may increase the risk of burnout among entrepreneurs. This communication aims to present a burnout prevention tool for entrepreneurs—Amarok e-Santémis, developed by a team of French researchers. One of its key advantages is its digitalized approach, which helps avoid desirability bias associated with face-to-face interactions. The implementation of this tool was supported by key partners, including AGEFICE, since its launch on December 1, 2020. By April 2024, nearly 80 French Occupational Health Prevention Services (SPST) were utilizing the tool, demonstrating the growing impact and recognition of this innovative approach.
