This paper examines the impact of burnout at work (BO), work life balance (WLB), work life conflict (WLC) and job satisfaction (JS) on turnover intensions (TOI) among doctors in Pakistan. The research team developed a conceptual model to test the hypothesized relationships between the variables. Simple random sampling method was used to distribute 300 questionnaires among MBBS qualified doctors working in the private and public sector hospitals in major cities of Pakistan, such as Peshawar, Lahore, Rawalpindi and Islamabad. With a response rate of 58.3%, 175 valid responses were received which comprised sample size of this study. The research team used SPSS 15.0 and Amos 16.0 for data analysis and model testing. The study concludes that there is no significant effect of burnout at work, work life balance and work life conflict on doctors' turnover intentions. There is no significant affect of burnout at work on doctors' work life balance whereas it has a significant effect on the work life conflict and job satisfaction of doctors. Moreover, work life balance has no significant affect on job satisfaction of doctors whereas work life conflict does have a significant effect on job satisfaction of doctors. Lastly, job satisfaction has a significant effect on turnover intentions of doctors.
There exist a large number of studies related to the estimates of government budgetary redistributive effects and its related problems with regard to different countries of the world.1 Studies of the impacts of government expenditures and taxes in Pakistan have been conducted within the framework of either incidence of taxes or the impact of expenditures across the income groups. The studies carried out by Azfar (1972); Jeetun (1978); Alauddin and Raza (1981) Malik and Saqib (1985, 1989) cover different aspects of taxation—tax incidence, progressivity or regressivity of the tax system across the income groups/individuals and regions. These studies did not discuss the expenditure side of the budget. Shirazi (1996) analysed the impact of government transfer programmes (Zakat and Ushr) across the income deciles. Ghaus (1989) studied the incidence of provincial and municipal government service-related expenditure benefits in Karachi metropolitan and therefore, the scope of her study was limited to one city only. Despite the existence of a rich bibliography on the subject of government redistrbutive budgetary effects and its related problems, no study is available which covers the overall redistributive impacts of government budgetary policy in Pakistan. This study explores the impacts of government expenditures and taxes on the distribution of income across various income groups along with net fiscal impacts in the urban-rural areas of Pakistan. The rest of our study is organised as follows. In the following section, Part II, we describe the methodology and data set. In Part III, the results of the study are presented. The Part IV concludes the paper.
