“…Two studies used the Oldenburg Burnout Inventory [74, 85], one study used the burnout subscale of the ProQOL [83], and one study used first-hand coding by an observer according to the Exhaustion-Disengagement Model [84], which uses job demand and resources to identify exhaustion and disengagement. One study used the Executive Burnout Scale, which was developed in Nigeria as a culturally-sensitive tool to measure burnout [68, 95]. One study did not specify the burnout measure used [73].…”

Background Burnout is characterized by physical and emotional exhaustion from long-term exposure to emotionally demanding work. Burnout affects interpersonal skills, job performance, career satisfaction, and psychological health. However, little is known about the burden of burnout among healthcare providers in sub-Saharan Africa. Methods Relevant articles were identified through a systematic review of PubMed, Web of Science (Thomson Reuters), and PsycINFO (EBSCO). Studies were selected for inclusion if they examined a quantitative measure of burnout among healthcare providers in sub-Saharan Africa. Results A total of 65 articles met our inclusion criteria for this systematic review. Previous studies have examined burnout in sub-Saharan Africa among physicians (N = 12 articles), nurses (N = 26), combined populations of healthcare providers (N = 18), midwives (N = 2), and medical or nursing students (N = 7). The majority of studies assessed burnout using the Maslach Burnout Inventory. The highest levels of burnout were reported among nurses, although all healthcare providers showed high burnout. Burnout among healthcare providers is associated with their work environments, interpersonal and professional conflicts, emotional distress, and low social support. Conclusions Available studies on this topic are limited by several methodological challenges. More rigorously designed epidemiologic studies of burnout among healthcare providers are warranted. Health infrastructure improvements will eventually be essential, though difficult to achieve, in under-resourced settings. Programs aimed at raising awareness and coping with burnout symptoms through stress management and resilience enhancement trainings are also needed.

This study aims to examine the effect of technostress on job satisfaction by involving the role of burnout as a mediator and teamwork as a moderator. The population of this study is all Bank Indonesia employees. The selected sample is the employees who have been working more than two years and use information technology systems both software developed by BI and hardware such as smart phones and laptops. The sampling technique used is random sampling. The analysis uses Partial Least Square (PLS) as a statistical test technique. The result shows that technostress has a negative effect on job satisfaction, technostress has a positive effect on burnout, burnout has a negative effect on job satisfaction, burnout mediates the influence between technostress and job satisfaction, and teamwork moderates the effect of technostress and job satisfaction. These results figure that the higher psychological pressure faced by individuals due to the use of technology can reduce the level of individual job satisfaction. This result also means that individuals who experience psychological pressure due to the use of technology have an impact on increasing mental and psychological fatigue (burnout) of individuals. Mental and psychological fatigue cause individuals to be apathetic and reduce their level of satisfaction with the work done. But then, teamwork can reduce the negative effect of technostress on job satisfaction. These findings strenghten the previous theories especially the causality ones. It contributes to the realm of science especially in human resource management field, and can be a reference for practical managers especially in the Bank Indonesia as the research object. The originality lies in the combination of causality models, uses SEM-PLS as an analysis tool, and the new object. The limitation resides in the amount of variables that are only three, with one object

Participants included 58 teachers of children with autism in public and private special schools in the area.

Three instruments Demographic variable, Single Item Stress Questionnaire (SISQ), and Maslach Burnout Inventory-Educators’ Survey (MBI-ES) were used to collect data. Data were collected at baseline; post-test and follow-up evaluations. Data were analyzed using means, standard deviations, t test statistics, repeated measures analysis of variance, and bar charts. Results: Results revealed that job-burnout reduced significantly at post-test assessment among the Y-CBT group compared to the waitlisted group. The reduction in the participant was sustained across 3months follow-up evaluation.
