As an Environmental Health Officer I would always discourage food handlers from placing hot foods in refrigerators. Guidance from the Foods Standards Agency, UK Health Security Agency and Industry guidance would back up this advice.
Cool down hot foods in small portions using an ice bath or in a cooler area such as a pantry for no more than 90 mins. Then cover over and place in the fridge.
Better still use a blast chiller.

The is where expertiese in one field dosent translate to other fields, condensation, stress on the compressor, hot pots going onto cold glass (not all glass shelves in fridges are borosilicate, and even that glass can shatter when repeatadly stressed. Plus that steam is a cross contamination issue. The difference in food coolling for an hour outside of the fridge against steaming inside the fridge for 10 minutes is negligible, but compaired to the factors above... leave it to cool outside and you will get a few more years out your fridge!

As someone that works in the food service industry, we always use icepacks to chill down soups and stocks before putting them in the fridge. Other items are left to chill to below 100°F before storage You don't want to ruin your refrigerator by overworking it and bringing other items in the refrigerator up above 35° F. Bacteria and gas pockets can also form in hot spots in food that is put directly into cold storage.

Commercial kitchens may have a "cooling fridge" before putting putting it into a holding fridge or a freezer... Even in training about food hygiene it is still mentioned as the preferred method. At home, you can put your pan into a sink filled with cold water to cool your food faster after it's "past" the 'piping hot' phase. Likewise, it is better, to cool the food before putting it into the freezer.
(My fridge/freezer is 10 yo and already been repaired once, which wasn't cheap, so I'm not risking putting large quantities of hot food in).

Noting that it's in a fridge with wire shelves, not glass. I'm never game to put scorchingly hot pots on glass shelves. If you want it in the fridge straight away, maybe decant your hot leftovers into a different (or several smaller - think surface area for cooling) container(s) and/or place a something non-conductive to heat (eg; oven mitt, tea towel) between the pot and the glass shelves. And make sure you reheat thoroughly, all the way through!

As someone who has worked in commercial kitchens for 20+ years... Putting hot food directly in the fridge absolutely means running the risk of over working the compressor... modern fridge or not. I have had to repair many fridges/freezers because of staff cutting corners and making this mistake.
