Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine factors related to job burnout among child welfare workers specifically working for Riverside County, Department of Children's Services Division (CSD). Identifying predictors of job burnout can improve working conditions, reduce absenteeism, reduce economic cost, increase employee retention, improve client treatment, and help attract competent individuals to the profession, making job burnout a relevant and necessary area to study in social work.
