THE MEDIATING EFFECT OF HAPPINESS ON THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN BURNOUT AND WORK-LIFE SATISFACTION AMONG RADIOLOGIC TECHNOLOGIST IN ISABELA

Abstract

Happiness is an important and meaningful positive emotion that contributes significantly to one's overall well-being. It is the state of having positive thoughts, psychological well-being, and inner peace, all of which are necessary for maintaining good health. Burnout occurs when an individual's coping strategies fail, resulting in decreased productivity, depletion of energy, negative emotions, and a decline in professional effectiveness. Both of it has a significant impact on employee performance and productivity. This study is descriptive-inferential research to describe. With descriptive statistics, it can describe both an entire population and an individual sample. The participants of this study are the Registered Radiologic Technology in Isabela. The participants or respondents of this research will mainly focus on the Mediating Effect of Happiness on the Relationship between Burnout and Work-life Satisfaction. Given the study's aims and findings, we conclude that burnout had no effect on respondents' profiles or work-life satisfaction. However, personal burnout has an impact on their happiness.  According to the findings, personal burnout leads to an increase in happiness. This study conclude that adequate training, efficient communication, and an appropriate rewards, recognition, and performance appraisal system all have an impact on respondents' burnout levels and work-life satisfaction. Furthermore, we infer that both work-related and client-related burnout have an impact on responders' training and communication. Overall, the study revealed that most of the respondents have feeling of growing fulfilment in their happiness level.
