CORRELATION BETWEEN MENTAL HEALTH, JOB INVOLVEMENT AND JOB BURNOUT OF HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGERS
Abstract
Job burnout is now a severe problem among employees. It is beneficial for individual and organizational development to fully understand job burnout. Therefore, this paper attempts to identify the correlation between mental health, job involvement and job burnout of human resource (HR) managers. The author carried out a questionnaire survey on 450 HR managers of state-owned enterprises in Beijing, China, and analysed the survey data on SPSS12.0. The results show that the HR managers are suffering from severe job burnout and poor mental health; their mental health has a significant positive correlation with job burnout and its three dimensions; job involvement has a significant negative correlation with job burnout; work pleasure has a significant negative correlation with the three dimensions of job burnout. The research results provide theoretical support to solving the job burnout of HR managers.
