The current study's main focus is to measure the influence of workplace incivility on the stress and job burnout experienced by nurses. The major issue being investigated is whether workplace incivility has a significant effect on the aforementioned factors. To achieve this, online surveys were applied, and a sample size of 100 nurses was taken from various hospitals in Punjab. The test results clearly showed that workplace incivility does have a significant impact on stress and job burnout experienced by nurses. Additionally, the study analyzed the influence of demographics such as age, education, gender, area and religion on these outcomes and found significant associations. In conclusion, based on the research findings, several recommendations for future research were proposed.
To assess and measure the impact of workplace incivility on job burnout and stress among nurses in Punjab, and to examine its influence on the demographics of these nurses.
Quantitative research using a survey method. Data was collected from 100 nurses in Punjab via online surveys using Google Docs and a simple convenience sampling technique. The study employed the Emotional Exhaustion subscale from the Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey (MBIGS) for job burnout, the To Encounters with Workplace Incivility Scale for workplace incivility, and an adapted scale from the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21) for stress. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS version 25, including regression analysis.

The study confirms previous research indicating a strong link between workplace incivility and negative outcomes such as stress and job burnout. The findings suggest that incivility is a significant predictor of these issues among nurses, regardless of their demographic characteristics. This highlights the pervasive nature of workplace incivility and its detrimental effects on the nursing profession.
Workplace incivility has a significant and positive impact on job burnout among nurses in Punjab (33% impact). Workplace incivility also has a significant and positive impact on the stress levels of nurses in Punjab (63% impact). Furthermore, workplace incivility significantly impacts the demographics of nurses, including age, sex, education, socioeconomic status, area, and religion.
Workplace incivility significantly and positively affects job burnout and stress levels in nurses in Punjab. It also has a significant impact on various demographic factors of nurses. These findings underscore the critical need to address workplace incivility to improve the well-being and job satisfaction of nurses.
