Abstract: Abstract Job burnout faced by employees has several organizational and individual consequences. Recent studies have suggested the use of self-regulation strategies by the employees to deal with job burnout. This paper takes the job demands–resources framework to understand the cognitive evaluations done by the employees of the stressors before employing necessary coping mechanisms that could either be a problem-focused one or an emotion-focused one. The study presents a conceptual model that aims to look at both coping strategies and the mechanisms involved in them, in relation with the other factors (like resilience and self-oriented perfectionism) that may moderate relationship between these coping strategies, manipulating the job strain that may lead to burnout.
