Data was collected by Netemeyer (1996) Work-Family Conflict questionnaire, Maslach & Jackson (1981) burnout questionnaire and Kamant et al., (1979) turnover questionnaire and analyzed by descriptive statistics , and correlation coefficient Pearson and regression analysis using SPSS-PC (v. 19) .

  Results: There was a significant positive relationship between work-family conflict and burnout (P<0/01). There was also a direct relationship between work-family conflict and burnout dimensions ( emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and personal accomplishment) (P<0/01) .
