This study aims to investigate the correlation between burnout, workplace satisfaction, and perceived health among nurses. The study was conducted with 322 nurses working in a university hospital. All nurses, except those on annual or sick leave, were included in the study sample. Data were evaluated with a personal information form, the MBI, the Work Environment Satisfaction Scale, and the Perceived Health Scale. The study data were analyzed with mean analysis, correlation and regression analysis, and Cronbach’s alpha coefficient. It was reported that the average emotional exhaustion score of nurses was 18.68, depersonalization score was 5.89 and self-actualization score was 20.54. It was also noted that 27.0% of the nurses in the study were satisfied with their work environment and 52.8% of the participants perceived their health in good condition. It was reported that work environment satisfaction was negatively correlated with emotional exhaustion (β=-.534, t=-11.229) and depersonalization (β=-.269, t=-4.988) while it was positively correlated with personal success (β=.191, t=3.478). Moreover, perceived health was also found negatively correlated with emotional exhaustion (β =-.386, t=-7.487) and depersonalization (β=-.146, t=-2.642) while it had positive effects on personal success (β =.130, t=2.336). The study results indicated that burnout syndrome was influenced by work environment satisfaction and perceived health. It is suggested that nursing managers and nursing leaders can ensure early diagnosis of burnout by evaluating perceived health and work environment satisfaction of nurses. It is absolutely recommended to prioritize to enhance work environment satisfaction.
