Abstract
The study aimed to assess absenteeism and extra role behaviors as correlates of job burnout. Employees from a nuclear physics institute (N = 142) completed a survey that included the Maslach Burnout Inventory–General Survey (MBI-GS), self-efficacy, support by colleagues, and workload. Levels of absenteeism and extra role behaviors were provided by company records. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analyses were applied to a conceptual model of relationships among variables rooted in Maslach and Leiter's resource-based model of burnout. Results suggest that self-efficacy was positively related to support by colleagues, workload, and professional efficacy, whereas it was negatively related to exhaustion. Exhaustion and cynicism were mainly and negatively related to workload and were not related to professional efficacy. In turn, absenteeism was positively related to exhaustion, whereas extra role behaviors were negatively related to cynicism.
