Özet
The issue of burnout among healthcare professionals has gained attention, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study assessed burnout prevalence among healthcare workers at a university hospital and examined the impact of nonreligiosity and nonspirituality on burnout levels. In this cross-sectional study, 546 employees completed the Nonreligious and Nonspiritual Scale (NRNSS) and Copenhagen Burnout Inventory. Nonreligiosity and nonspirituality significantly predicted personal burnout (β = 1.27; p =.045). The findings highlight the need for tailored burnout interventions, including secular resilience and mindfulness programs. Additionally, this study explores whether the NRNSS could help identify healthcare workers at higher burnout risk without stigmatizing nonreligious individuals. It lays the groundwork for further research into emerging burnout risk factors and inclusive interventions for healthcare professionals.
