A Study on the Relationship among Psychological Burnout, Resilience, and Job Satisfaction: Focusing on Estheticians

This study aimed to investigate the relationships among psychological burnout, resilience, and job satisfaction among estheticians and to examine the effects of psychological burnout and resilience on job satisfaction. A survey was conducted with 350 estheticians from August 28 to September 2, 2025. The collected data were analyzed using factor analysis to verify construct validity, reliability analysis to assess internal consistency, correlation analysis to examine the relationships among variables, and multiple regression analysis to identify the effects of psychological burnout and resilience on job satisfaction. The results revealed that psychological burnout had significant negative effects on both resilience and job satisfaction, indicating that higher levels of burnout were associated with lower psychological resources and reduced job satisfaction. In particular, reduced personal accomplishment, a sub-dimension of psychological burnout, was identified as the most influential factor contributing to decreased resilience. In addition, among the sub-dimensions of resilience, positivity demonstrated the strongest positive effect across all dimensions of job satisfaction. These findings suggest that reducing psychological burnout and strengthening resilience are important strategies for enhancing job satisfaction among estheticians. Furthermore, the results highlight the importance of providing systematic support and developing programs to promote psychological resources among employees in the beauty service industry.
