Abstract :The purpose of this research is to determine the relationship between stress and burnout in workers of an automotive factory. This research was conducted descriptively with 306 participants at Sango Automotive Products Industry and Trade Joint Stock Company in Kocaeli/Türkiye between April and July 2021. Data were collected using the Personal Information Form, Perceived Stress Scale and Burnout Scale-Short Version. The mean Perceived Stress Scale score of participants was 25.11±7.39; The average score of the Burnout Scale were 29.69±12.61. A statistically significant positive relationship was determined between the mean Perceived Stress Scale scores and Burnout Scale scores of participants (r=0.67; p<0.05). Additionally, a significant difference was found between the age, marital status, having children, and working hours at the workplace of participants and their scale scores (p<0.05). According to the results of this research, reducing workers\\\' stress levels can reduce their burnout levels. These results may provide evidence for psychiatric nurses\\\' interventions to reduce the stress and burnout levels of workers.
