Effect of Job Stress on Job Burnout of Early Childhood Education Teachers
Teachers, particularly those employed in the Early Childhood Education (ECE) system, suffer from physical and mental stress. The combination of an excessive workload and a lack of appreciation leads to job burnout and job discontent. Over 70% of ECE teachers worldwide report feeling burned out at work. It is necessary to look into the causes of stress and how it affects teacher work burnout. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between occupational stress and burnout among Early childhood education teachers. The current study, which mostly focused on ECE teachers and their difficulties associated with occupations, studied the impact of work stress on job burnout. Through the use of a questioner and the cluster sampling technique, information was gathered from 100 ECE teachers. The findings of this study will assist in understanding the problems and stress experienced by ECE teachers and in developing a plan to improve their working conditions.
