Abstract: The present study addresses the complex relationship between burnout, perceived organizational support, and effort at work, in the context of a multidimensional analysis. By applying the Spearman correlation test, the research reveals a negative correlation between the level of burnout and the perception of support provided by the organization, emphasizing the significant influence of the organizational environment on employees' well-being. In addition, the study identifies a weak positive correlation between burnout and employee effort, suggesting that high levels of burnout may coexist with increased effort, possibly as a compensatory mechanism. The analysis is completed by a perspective on the gender dynamics within the burnout phenomenon, with reference to the study of Purvanova and Muros (2010), which challenges traditional assumptions and emphasizes the differences in the manifestation of burnout between the sexes. In conclusion, the research provides an integrative perspective on the interplay between organizational, personal and gender factors, laying the groundwork for personalized and effective intervention strategies to combat burnout and promote workplace health.
