“…In the US, around 9% of 8000 surgeons reported that they made medical errors. Burnout has been found associated with substance abuse, lack of motivation, and performance, which can lead to medical errors [6,7]. There are many factors for job dissatisfaction among inpatient nurses such as dealing with death cases and a stressful work environment [8].…”

Background: Burnout is defined as a long-term work stress. The prevalence of burnout syndrome among nurses is 42% of nurses in England. Many countries have conducted studies to measure the level of burnout among health care providers. There is a lack of research on burnout among healthcare providers in the Arabic countries. Aims: This study aimed to assess the burnout level among healthcare providers in Saudi Arabia and United Arab Emirates and to predict the burnout factors of healthcare providers working in tertiary private hospitals. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional survey was used to evaluate the burnout among healthcare providers. A total of 900 healthcare providers working in the clinical areas of six private hospitals in the Arabia Gulf Region were recruited for the study. A total of 892 healthcare providers were included in the study. A total of eight surveys were excluded due to major missing data. Results: A total of 892 healthcare providers were included in the study. The average age was 32 years ± 7 years for male and female healthcare providers. A high burnout level was found in the results. The participating female healthcare providers had a higher level of emotional exhaustion as compared with their male counterparts. Nurses had more emotional exhaustion as compared with physicians, respiratory therapists, and other colleagues. Conclusions: High burnout levels among healthcare providers can reflect negatively on the healthcare providers well-being, job satisfaction, and mental health. Burnout has been linked with medical errors and physician–patient relationships. We believe that it is important to deal with this issue of public health in Saudi Arabia and UAE. This study aimed to explore burnout levels among healthcare providers in Saudi Arabia and UAE. Results showed a high level of burnout among the healthcare.

The accumulation of stress exhausts individuals to the point where their energy resources are insufficient for their attempts to overcome the pressure of a situation in which they work with other people [7][8][9][10].…”

Background: Burnout is a mental condition defined as a result of continuous and long-term stress exposure, particularly related to psychosocial factors at work. This paper aims to examine the psychometric properties of the Maslach Burnout Questionnaire (MBI-HSS) for validation of use in Lebanon, and to describe burnout and associated factors amongst nurses in Lebanon especially the gender and employment sector. Methods: The psychometric properties of the Arabic version of MBI-HSS were studied amongst a sample of 200 nurses. In this descriptive study, survey data were collected from private and public hospitals. The data were analyzed by means of descriptive statistics and multivariate analysis. Results: The results indicated satisfactory reliability through internal consistency for all three scales of the MBI-HSS. The factor analysis was quite satisfactory. Most of staff had scores which indicated they were burnt out. Nearly three quarters (77.5%) reported emotional exhaustion, 36.0% reported depersonalization while almost one third (33.0%) experienced reduced personal accomplishment. Burnout increases for 30-39 years age groups. Married nurses had significantly higher emotional exhaustion. Depersonalization was highest among nurses in private sector, and personal accomplishment was highest among nurses in public sector. Depersonalization proved to be higher in night and rotating shift nurses. Depression, backache, and headache were predictors of burnout. Conclusion: Findings indicate that the main psychometric properties of reliability and validity of the Arabic version of MBI-HSS appear to be satisfactory. Burnout is particularly prominent and severe in the nurses working population. The implications of these findings for interventions that reduce burnout and promote nursing mental health are therefore in the interest of employers, governments and policy makers

“…According to Gülalp, Karcıoğlu, Sarı & Köseoğlu (2008) there is lack of adequate linkage between marital status and burnout. By contrast, Ifeagwazi (2006) claims that married employees' burnout levels are significantly lower than single employees' burnout levels.…”

“…According to Dillon & Tanner (1995) and more recently Yıldırım (2008) it might be said that gender, age and marital status have not linkage with burnout. However, in contrast to these researchers Jackson (1993) and Cordes & Dougherty (1993) claim that there is a plausible link between these variables.According to Gülalp, Karcıoğlu, Sarı & Köseoğlu (2008) there is lack of adequate linkage between marital status and burnout.

The object of the research is observing the effects of socio-demographic factors and work-life balance on employees' emotional exhaustion. The sample of the research consists of 261 participants in retailing, education, service, industry and logistics sectors. In line with the theoretical background, proper methods that are hierarchical regression analysis and analysis of variance (ANOVA) are implemented. The contribution of the research to the existing literature is exploring the relationship between socio-demographic factors, work-life balance and burnout by carrying out the implementation in organizations. Findings of the research demonstrate that the predictor with the highest effect on emotional exhaustion is the variable named taking time for oneself. The predictor with the lowest effect is variable named life is just working. Briefly we can say, it could be argued that emotional exhaustion declines by .398 units should taking time for oneself increases 1 unit. Emotional exhaustion decreases by .223 units whether work-life accordance is changed by 1 unit. Emotional exhaustion drops .196 units should life is just working increases 1 unit. By contrast, when you change neglecting life 1 unit, emotional exhaustion decreases by .202 units. Should carrying work to home changes 1 unit, emotional exhaustion increases by .313 units. To sum up, regarding to marital status, monthly total income and sector; there are significant differences between the groups in the levels of emotional exhaustion of employees. It appears that there is no significant difference between other groups.Keywords: Work-life balance; emotional exhaustion; socio-demographic factors; hierarchical regression; ANOVA. IntroductionOver the past 30 years there has been a significant increase in the field of work-life balance and burnout. Undoubtedly, this increase is almost certainly due to the change of work's structure. Most studies in the literature have focused on work-life balance and burnout relationship (Chiang, Birtch & Kwan, 2010;Chimote & Srivastava, 2013;Karabacak, 2013;Pichler, 2009). These studies are frequently implemented in the field of education, health and defense; and the participants are mostly nurses (Altay, Gönener & Demirkıran, 2010;Li, Ruan & Yuan, 2015); teachers (Avanzi, Schuh, Fraccaroli & Dick, 2015;Khezerlou, 2013;Otacıoğlu, 2008); academicians (Budak & Sür-gevil, 2005;Moeller & Chung-Yan, 2013) and police officers (Novara, Garro & Di Rienzo, 2015). By contrast, it is a widely held view that a small number of studies which have focused on the relationship between work-life balance, emotional exhaustion and socio-demographic factors; moreover, only a small number of them have been carried out in the organizations. Therefore, this study aims to fill this gap by carrying out the implementation in organizations and observe the relationship between socio-demographic factors, work-life balance and burnout.
