| Summary: | Resilient individuals are able to turn stressful events into opportunities for personal growth and
benefit, exploiting the chances in ever great challenges. A resilient workforce is healthy,
energetic, durable, and enthusiastic with fast, friendly, flexible, and focused workers in it. The
present study enquires if burnout, in the blue collared employees in metal factories, has a
significant inverse relationship with resilience. Sample included 40 blue collared employees
from Sree Narayana Engineering Industries, Shoranur-2, Palakkad District in the state of Kerala,
India. Resilience of the participants was measured using BU resilience scale (Annalakshmi,
2009). Maslach burnout inventory (Maslach & Jackson, 1981) was used to measure their burn
out. Correlation analysis indicated that resilience had a strong and significant inverse
relationship with burnout. Regression analysis indicated that resilience in the employees can
predict a reduction of burn out. Among the four factors of burn out, reduced personal
accomplishments indicated a high negative relationship with resilience. Implications and
recommendations for the future research were discussed. |
