Abstract

This paper explores the relationship between engagement and job burnout perceived by teleworking employees. The theoretical framework of this paper explains the concepts of telework, work engagement, and job burnout, but also the relationships between these variables. Telework is a “new reality” for many employees, and in this new work context, engagement and burnout must be investigated, especially for entry level employees. We analyzed the relationship between engagement and telework, respectively burnout and telework based on a questionnaire. The results reveal a positive relationship between engagement and telework and a negative correlation between burnout and telework. The research results also show that burnout has a high level among telework employees, and exhaustion is the most pronounced problem.
