Rust-out refers to symptoms of apathy, disinterest, and dullness that arise from jobs that underutilize employees' skills over time. It is the opposite of burnout and results in the slow erosion of motivation and job contribution as skills atrophy from lack of use. Left unaddressed, rust-out can spread to other workers and indicate deeper problems with management style that do not engage or challenge employees. To prevent rust-out, managers must identify underutilized workers and take steps to resolve the issues through changes in job duties or training.

Rustout
Rust-out is the term occupational psychologists give to symptoms arising from jobs that leave people feeling apathetic, disinterested and dull. Effectively its the opposite of burnout yet some of the effects may appear remarkably similar.
In other words Rust-out means the people who are chronically under-worked whose skills are so under-used that they begin to atrophy(waste). This syndrome(symptoms) is a problem for employees. Like a rusting tool, the erosion happens slowly over a time. So its up-to boss to figure out who has succumbed(failed) to rust-out and what to do about it.
Workers who no longer engage in work place events. Workers who do not identify with their jobs the way they used to. Workers who no longer fit into the dusty structure. Workers who begin to feel the are not needed or valued.

When a employee with a good skills has given a work rather than in which he is good. That employee get to do that job. Rust out takes place when employee losses the hopes. When employee become very old to an organization they are not given chance to work properly.
Many managers have to tolerate mediocre(not very good) just because the dont understand that slow erosion of motivation and contribution has taken place. And because they dont realise that they can take step to fire that employee.
Ones an employee lost his enthusiasm for his job, wide-spread of rust-out could indicate more systematic problems in the management style. Both boss and employee need the source and understand that rust-out can be reserved. Firing rusty employee doesnt guarantee that the rust-out wont occur again with new employee.
