Discussion – Burnout is a condition that negatively affects organizational and individual performance. Therefore, it is extremely important to carry out studies to reduce the level of burnout. The studies carried out by businesses to reduce the level of burnout also contribute to increasing the degree of institutionalization. In this context, a striking point in the data obtained as a result of the studies is that the burnout rate is low in enterprises with a high level of institutionalization. This situation can be interpreted as that the employees of the enterprises enjoy working in this job. In addition, the high level of institutionalization can be accepted as an indicator of the importance that enterprises attach to institutionalization. For this reason, it is extremely important in terms of speeding up the institutionalization process of enterprises, providing a better working environment for their employees, reducing their burnout levels and increasing their performance.
