This article examines and reveals the levels of Emotional Burnout among working wives, and how this relates to the demographic dimension. For this purpose, the general social surveying method was used to collect data. The Emotional Burnout scale was used to measure these levels in 600 employed women. Findings indicated that the level of Emotional Burnout among working women was moderate; and that the number of children was among the variables that had the greatest effect on raising the level of Emotional Burnout among the participants.
