Methods: This descriptive correlational study was performed on 120 nurses working in emergency wards of educational hospitals (150 nurse) affiliated to Urmia University of Medical Sciences in 2018 who were selected by relative classified sampling method. Data were collected by demographic checklist, Maslach Job Burnout Inventory, and nursing stress scale (NSS). Data were analyzed by SPSS software version 17 using descriptive and inferential statistical methods. Results: In this study, mean ± SD of total job stress, and burnout were 89.62±20.59 and 66.86 ± 19.81 respectively. Among the demographic variables, job burnout had a significant relationship with gender and job position and job stress with age and job position of nurses (P <0.05). The results also showed that there is a significant relationship between total occupational stress and all domains with burnout and its three dimensions (P = 0.000). In addition, multiple linear regression showed that job stress can predict job burnout in these nurses. Conclusions: Job stress can be a predictor of burnout, so it is recommended that in preventing and reducing burnout, this factor should be carefully considered and by preparing training programs and interventions to improve and change the work environment of nurses to The health of their work environment helped.
