Relating to or characterized by an irrational fear of work and labor.
From 'ergophobia' plus the adjective suffix '-ic'. This descriptive form allows the term to modify nouns and describe conditions or behaviors related to work anxiety.
Someone described as ergophobic isn't just lazy—they have measurable physiological stress responses (elevated cortisol and heart rate) when facing work tasks, making it a legitimate medical condition, not a character flaw.
