Objective:

to analyze the relationship between the perception of organizational justice and the Burnout syndrome in nursing professionals from the city of Medellín, Colombia.

Material and Methods:

A cross-sectional study was carried out, with 53 nurses from three private health institutions in the city of Medellin, in which demographic, labor variables, presence of Burnout syndrome and perception of organizational justice were measured.

Results:

Most of the professionals are female, with an average age of 34,26 ± 7,6 years. The prevalence of Burnout syndrome is 67,9%. The highest organizational justice dimension was interactional and the lowest was procedural. A significant correlation was observed between emotional exhaustion, personal achievement, and dimensions of justice. No significant correlation was observed between depersonalization and organizational justice.

Conclusion:

More than 67% of nursing professionals have moderate / high levels of Burnout. The presence of Burnout was correlated with the perception of organizational justice.
