Summary

Introduction

Care providers, such as emergency personnel, firefighters, nurses, doctors, and other community service providers are among the primary victims of occupational stress and its complications due to their constant exposure to stressful circumstances. The nursing profession is inherently stressful due to the nature of its tasks Their special working conditions, such as rotating shifts, separate them from society. Low wage is another one of the stressful issues facing nurses. Continuation of such conditions can lead to their occupational burnout (2). Occupational burnout is the symptom of physical, psychological, and emotional fatigue which is caused by long and direct exposure to the work environment and clients. This disorder has a high prevalence among care workers, especially nurses. The present study aimed to predict the occupational burnout in nurses based on spirituality and psychological capital in Khorramabad, Iran
