Abstract
The aim of this work is to present the results of research on occupational burnout in a group of psychiatrists. The electronic databases and empirical publications from 2000-2017 were searched. In order to identify reports that met the selection criteria, the papers was critically assessed. In the presented studies it was shown that the burnout syndrome is most often presented in accordance with the theoretical model proposed by Christina Maslach (including the dimension of depersonalization, emotional exhaustion and the feeling of lack of personal achievements). Risk factors include, among others: too long working hours, low earnings, negative self-image, specificity of treated patients, conflicts with colleagues, satisfaction with the work performed, insufficient supervision of work.
