The present study investigated and compared the professional burnout level of rehabilitation social workers working in different rehabilitation agencies. The burnout level measured in the three groups of rehabilitation social workers was also compared to the burnout level experienced by a group of social workers working in social welfare agencies. One hundred and twelve subjects filled out the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). The MBI consists of four factors: Emotional exhaustion, Depersonalization, reduced Personal Accomplishment and Personal Involvement, each of which is independently scored. The instrument also assesses both the frequency and intensity of the feelings represented by each of the factors. The results demonstrated that there were differences in manifestations and sources of burnout among the four groups. These differences are discussed in relation to job setting variables
