Background: Nowadays, spirituality is a new fundamental in organization which has a powerful and deep effect on staff's lives. This powerful force will be achieved when employees’ work and spiritual life are linked. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between spiritual intelligence and dimensions of burnout and demographic variables.
Materials and Methods: This descriptive study – correlation has been done on the 350 personnel of police staff in Sistan-o-Baluchestan. They were selected by convenience sampling method. For gathering information, Spiritual Intelligence questionnaire and Mazlash job Burnout questionnaire with three main areas (emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, a feeling of personal accomplishment) were used. The Data were analyzed with SPSS17 software, descriptive and inferential statistics were also analyzed.
Results: The mean and standard deviation of spiritual intelligence was 42.14 ± 30.129. Spiritual intelligence only had significant correlation with two emotional exhaustion and depersonalization dimensions (P = 0.022). Among the demographic characteristics only marital status, age, and job satisfaction had significant relationships with spiritual intelligence (P < 0.05); but between work experience, education, income satisfaction and spiritual intelligence there was no significant relation(p > 0.05).
Conclusion: Having high level of spiritual intelligence could improve job burnout so this fact suggests to managers to have an eye concern about education and improving spiritual intelligence in staff.
