The subject of the research is the analysis of the level of job satisfaction and the occurrence of burnout symptoms among nurses, which qualifies for an interdisciplinary area of knowledge covering occupational psychology, human resources management and health sciences. This approach allows for both theoretical and practical analysis, allowing for the identification of factors that determine the positive and negative aspects of the functioning of this professional group. Understanding these relationships is essential for the development of effective intervention strategies that can contribute to increasing the overall level of employee well-being and, consequently, indirectly improving the quality of medical services provided. Contemporary research indicates that low job satisfaction not only negatively affects professional efficiency, but also increases the risk of health problems, both mental and physical [3]. In the context of nurses, whose work involves direct contact with patients, these effects may have far-reaching consequences for the entire healthcare system. Therefore, taking up the subject is justified not only from a scientific perspective, but also from a practical one – research results may constitute the basis for introducing organizational changes aimed at improving the quality of the work environment
