Abstract

The current study is based on the idea of finding out how job burn out is related with job performance among officers and officials of Punjab Highway and Patrolling Police. Existing literature provided strong evidence of how job burn out affects the job performance but fewer research are available on the same phenomenon on this population. The study is based on quantitative research technique with survey method as the research method. A sample of 196 respondents was selected through multistage sampling technique and by using Research Advisor Formula 2006. The researcher applied regression analysis to find out the causative relationship between the variables. the study revealed that -.683 of variance in the dependent variable i.e. job performance is accounted for or based on job burn out. On the same token one unit increase in the job burn out is changing the job performance in a negative way by 2.470 times thus showing a strong nature of relationship. This implies that strong measures should be adopted to increase the job performance and reduce the stress among Punjab highway and patrolling police.
