A five rating  scale questionnaire was used in this study. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics: frequency, percentage, mean. Causal relationship model was analyzed by LISREL 8.80.


            The results indicated the engagement in work and job resources value had a direct effect on burnout in work of the secondary school teachers, job resources and proactive coping had an indirect effect on burnout in work through engagement in work value. The proposed model was consistent with the empiritical data. Goodness of fit statistics were: chi- square test=98.94, df =97, p =.43, GFI = 0.98, SRMR = .03 and RMSEA = .01. The variables in the proposed model accounted for 87 percent of the total variance of burnout in work.
