    abstract = "Aims and method: To identify correlates between burnout and job stress of care staff at Leros PIKPA Asylum. Forty-nine asylum employees were assessed by Maslach's Burnout Inventory, a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Perceived Stress Scale and the Job Content Questionnaire. Results: Emotional exhaustion is related negatively to social support (P = 0.010, r =70.362). Lack of job achievements is related positively to overall job responsibility (P = 0.040) and negatively to lack of job satisfaction (r =70.430). Depersonalisation was negatively associated with support from superiors (P = 0.036). Employees with high levels of perceived stress reported higher levels of fatigue (P = 0.050). Positive associations of perceived stress with depression (P = 0.011) and sleep problems (P < 0.001) were also detected. Positive correlation was found between monthly salary and lack of sense of personal achievement (P = 0.020). Clinical implications: It is necessary to address these issues through staff education and stress management. © 2016 The Authors."
