Abstract (English):	Prevalence of Burnout Syndrome was evaluated in 193 physicians, 35 executive personel and 150 labourers; distributed according to sex, age and socioeconomical condition; in order to estimate emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and personal accomplishment according to the Maslach and Jackson tests, and its relationship with sex, age and socioeconomic condition. This is a descriptive, cross-sectional study. The Maslach and Jackson test were used for data collection and the Graffar-Mendez Castellano test to establish socioeconomic stratification of included subjects. Burnout Syndrome was present in 33.7%, 14.3% and 18% (p< 0.01) of physicians, executive personel and labourers respectively. Males younger than 32 years old were the most affected. Differences between groups from different socioeconomical conditions were not statistically significant (p >0.05). It is concluded that Burnout Syndrome affects physicians more frequently than persons with some other occupations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Spanish):	Se evaluaron 193 médicos residentes, 35 ejecutivos y 150 obreros de una empresa de manufactura, para determinar la prevalencia del síndrome de desgaste profesional (Burnout) en los grupos en estudio; su distribución según sexo, edad y condición socioeconómica. Las pruebas de Maslach y Jackson (cansancio emocional, despersonalización y realización personal) fueron aplicadas para evaluar los eventos más frecuentes según el sexo, edad y condición socioeconómica, para determinar si existían diferencias significativas entre los grupos. Se realizó un estudio descriptivo y transversal. La encuesta de Graffar-Méndez Castellano se aplicó para la estratificación social. El síndrome de desgaste profesional presentó índices de 33,7%, 14,3% y 18% (p<0,01) en médicos, ejecutivos y obreros, respectivamente; afectando más a los hombres menores de 32 años. No hubo diferencias significativas (p>0,05) en cuanto a estratos sociales. En conclusión, el síndrome de desgaste profesional afecta mas a médicos que al resto del personal de salud.
