Abstract

Relevance. The activity of teachers is saturated with stressful factors, and therefore it requires from them strong resources of self-control and self-recovery. The destructive consequence of long-term stress overload is the syndrome of occupational burnout, which has a negative impact on the psycho-emotional state of both the teacher and other participants of the educational process.

Purpose. The purpose of this study was to analyse the concept and manifestation of occupational burnout in secondary education teachers, to expand knowledge on counteracting it.

Methodology. The study employed the methods of analysis and synthesis, systematisation, generalisation, comparison, modelling, and questionnaire survey.

Results. The scientific study analysed the key definitions: occupational burnout syndrome, professional health, and its features. It was determined the structural components of professional health and factors influencing its state, leading to the development of occupational burnout syndrome. The study found an insufficient number of developed methods of educational institutions to prevent manifestations of occupational burnout syndrome. Based on the results of the survey, the level of burnout among teachers was revealed. Proceeding from this, a range of preventive techniques was recommended, including communication to analyse teachers’ feelings and provide social support, conducting “time-outs”, forming the key role of friends in the team, analysing the results of pedagogical activity and achievements, etc.

Conclusions. The study considered the specific features of psychological counteraction to occupational burnout of teachers, analysed the causes of pedagogical burnout, identified the key means of preventive assistance, and determined common effective technologies for overcoming professional stress states and emotional disorders. The practical significance of this study lies in the development of recommendations to counteract the development of occupational burnout syndrome in teachers and the possibility of their use in the preparation of educational plans for professional and psychological training of teaching staff.
