An in-depth literature review was conducted before the analysis was carried out, and studies that meet the established criteria were included in the analysis. The heterogeneity of the studies, statistical significance, impact size analyses and publication biases were examined during the analyses. In addition, subgroup analyses were performed to measure the difference between sectors. Results: First, the significance of the studies taken into the analysis was looked at and found to be statistically significant. Looking at their heterogeneity, the studies were determined to be heterogeneous, and the effect size was evaluated according to the random effects model. According to the results of the effect size analysis, a statistically significant and strong association was found between burnout and intention to leave work insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(E.S.= 0.610);. It has been found that there is no publication bias in the study. Finally, no significant differences were found according to the difference analysis conducted according to the sectors in which the data sample was taken. But the bank sector insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(E.S.=0.671); had the highest impact, while the health sector insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(E.S.=0.567); had the lowest impact.
