Abstract

The present research aims to identify the relations between burnout, job demands and negative work-home interference. One hundred and sixty seven physicians, residents and nurses working in obstetrics and gynecology clinics filled out the Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey, the Questionnaire on the Experience and Evaluation of Work and the Survey Work-Family Interaction Nijmegen. Results of multiple regression analyses indicate that while job demands predict burnout, the negative work-home interference partially mediates the relation between job demands and burnout. The present results have implications for designing interventions focused on reducing burnout among healthcare professionals.
