Medicine has always been considered a profession with high requirements for its representatives (personal qualities, high level of education, its versatility, continuity, etc.)- Many medical workers, as representatives of helping professions, are at high risk of emotional burnout, which is referred to in foreign literature as "burnout", which translates as “collapse”, “exhaustion ”. Burnout is a global problem associated with the presence of distress arising in the process of performing work activities, which has the potential for a negative impact on both mental and physical health of a person, and the effectiveness of the organization. Most researchers of burnout believe that this phenomenon is negative for organizations, employees and their environment; therefore, it is necessary to strive to reduce its level, which generates an ongoing scientific interest in the factors that form this multicomponent mental syndrome [1]. Despite the large amount of accumulated material on the problem of burnout in domestic and foreign science, disagreements on the mechanisms of burnout and its structure persist today.
