The sample of this cross-sectional study includes 227 healthcare professionals. “Personal Information Form,” “Job Overload Scale,” “Burnout Scale” and “Perceived Organizational Support Scale” were used as data collection tools. It was determined that there was a positive correlation between job overload and burnout, personal accomplishment, emotional exhaustion and depersonalization and a negative correlation between job overload and organizational support perception. There was a significant and negative correlation between organizational support perception and burnout, personal accomplishment, emotional exhaustion and depersonalization. It was revealed that job overload had a significant and positive effect on burnout. The mediation role of organizational support perception in the effect of job overload on burnout was analyzed through structural equation modeling. It was determined as a result of the study that organizational support perception had a statistically significant mediator role in the effect of job overload on burnout. While job overload may increase burnout, a strong organizational support perception may reduce this negative effect.</p></abstract>

                            <p>Bu çalışmanın amacı, sağlık çalışanlarında iş yükünün tükenmişlik üzerine etkisinde örgütsel destek algısının aracılık rolünü incelemektir. Kesitsel tipteki bu araştırmanın örneklemini Erciyes Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Uygulama ve Araştırma Merkezi’nde çalışan 227 sağlık çalışanı oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak “Kişisel Bilgi Formu”, “Aşırı İş Yükü Ölçeği” “Tükenmişlik Ölçeği” ve “Örgütsel Destek Algısı Ölçeği” kullanılmıştır. Aşırı iş yükü ile tükenmişlik, kişisel başarı, duygusal tükenme ve duyarsızlaşma arasında pozitif, örgütsel destek algısı ile arasında negatif yönlü bir ilişkinin olduğu belirlenmiştir. Örgütsel destek algısı ile tükenmişlik, kişisel başarı duygusal tükenme ve duyarsızlaşma arasında anlamlı ve negatif yönlü bir ilişkinin olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Aşırı iş yükünün tükenmişliği anlamlı ve pozitif yönlü etkilediği ortaya koyulmuştur. Aşırı iş yükünün tükenmişlik üzerindeki etkisinde örgütsel destek algısının aracılık rolü yapısal eşitlik modellemesi ile analiz edilmiştir. Araştırmanın sonucunda aşırı iş yükünün tükenmişlik üzerindeki etkisinde örgütsel destek algısının istatiksel açıdan anlamlı bir şekilde aracılık rolü gösterdiği belirlenmiştir.</p></trans-abstract>
