Clinical burnout is an extremely debilitating disorder and has been associated with multiple adverse effects. Burnout is an occupational health issue of a psychosocial nature and is one of the most important work-related problems in today’s society. The study helped to identify the burnout, according to research from the past 5 years, 45.02 % and 65.98 % of the healthcare workers felt emotional exhaustion and depersonalization respectively. The prevalence of burnout in Indian medical practitioners is rather high and similar to prevalence rates of burnout among the healthcare workers in other countries; also this study shows a high prevalence of burnout among females as compared to the males.
