PROFESSIONAL BURNOUT AND JOB PERFORMANCE AMONG TEACHERS

Summary/Abstract: The teaching profession is demanding and responsible, and it has recently brought with it an increasing number of stressful situations, thus it is critical to explore the causes and consequences of burnout in that profession. Burnout at work is a significant social and professional problem, the repercussions of which are reflected in the individual's and the larger environment's job efficiency. However, exposure to stressors alone does not always result in burnout, and the formation of this syndrome is said to need the combination of numerous elements, both environmental and individual. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the relationship between professional burnout and teachers' in-role job performance. The study was carried out on a suitable sample of 130 teachers (61male and 69 female) from the upper grades of elementary school in the Tuzla Canton area. The burnout questionnaire (Demerouti and Bakker, 2008) and the job performance questionnaire(Williams and Anderson, 1991) were utilized in this study. The findings revealed that burnout is prevalent among teachers, that female instructors are more burnt out than male teachers, and that burnout differs depending on the age of the teacher.
