20.500.12556/DKUM-94009 Job satisfaction and professional burnout in kindergarten teachers Zadovoljstvo z delom in poklicno izgorevanje vzgojiteljev The article investigates the relationship between kindergarten teachers’ professional burnout and their education level and work experience. The data were obtained through a survey conducted among 206 kindergarten teachers. According to the results, kindergarten teachers are most satisfied working with children and collaborating with colleagues, and least satisfied with their monthly income, formal professional training offer, working conditions and work organization. Self-assessment of work exhaustion and work alienation showed no statistically significant differences, but a difference was recorded for work engagement. Kindergarten teachers with bachelor’s degree have the highest level of work engagement, as well as those who are at the beginning of their careers. V prispevku preučujemo povezavo med poklicno izgorelostjo vzgojiteljev v vrtcih ter njihovo stopnjo izobrazbe in delovnimi izkušnjami. Podatke smo pridobili z anketnim vprašalnikom, na keterega je odgovorilo 206 vzgojiteljev. Glede na rezultate so vzgojitelji najbolj zadovoljni z delom z otroki in sodelovanjem s sodelavci. Najmanj so zadovoljni z mesečnim dohodkom, ponudbo strokovnega izobraževanja, delovnimi razmerami in organizacijo dela. Samoocena delovne izčrpanosti in odtujenosti od dela ni pokazala statistično značilnih razlik, je pa razlika zabeležena pri delovni zavzetosti. Najvišjo stopnjo delovne zavzetosti imajo vzgojitelji z univerzitetno izobrazbo ter tisti, ki so na zacetku kariere. professional training work role work conditions kidergarten teachers strokovno usposabljanje delovna vloga delovni pogoji vzgojitelji izgorelost true false true Univerzitetna založba Univerze v Mariboru Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Znanstveno delo 2025-07-29 10:03:15 2025-07-29 10:09:07 2025-07-30 03:11:46 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2024 0 0 Str. 37-51 št. 1 Letn. 17 mar. 2024 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 2023-08-03 2024-03-29 37.011.3-051:159.944.4 213787651 1855-4431 Mandaric_Vukusic_2024_Job_Satisfaction_and_Professional_Burnout.pdf Mandaric_Vukusic_2024_Job_Satisfaction_and_Professional_Burnout.pdf 1 06A77A8BC020AC15FCFB938B7599612F 988a0258f5721634f723d6cb5c4980e29d36dc415669bd5a40f395814aed1805 112e8ce8-6c53-11f0-aa9e-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=194386 https://doi.org/10.18690/rei.2519 0 32a2aa52-6c53-11f0-aa9e-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=194387 Univerzitetna založba Univerze v Mariboru Pedagoška fakulteta Revija za elementarno izobraževanje 0 0 0
