Teacher burnout is a common phenomenon that is characterized by high rates of teacher turnover. According to the World Health Organization, teacher burnout is a syndrome that results from chronic workplace stress. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the level of burnout and the decision to stay or leave the teaching profession. The second objective was to determine if schools are implementing strategies to alleviate burnout among teachers. The Maslach Burnout Inventory was used to identify participants who met the criteria for "burned out." Twenty-five teachers completed the inventory, of which sixteen scored in the occupational exhaustion category. The study found a correlation between burnout and the likelihood of leaving the teaching profession. Additionally, the research explored institutional interventions that may or may not mitigate the stressors contributing to teacher burnout. Future research should focus on developing and testing potential solutions to enhance the sustainability and resilience of the teaching profession.
