abstract="OBJECTIVES: To investigate burnout among Bangladeshi nurses and the factors that influence it, particularly the association of workplace bullying (WPB) and workplace violence (WPV) with burnout. <br><br>METHODS: This cross-sectional study collected data from 1,264 Bangladeshi nurses. Mixed-effects Poisson regression models were fitted to find the adjusted association between WPB, WPV, and burnout. <br><br>RESULTS: Burnout was found to be prevalent in 54.19% of 1,264 nurses. 61.79% of nurses reported that they had been bullied, and 16.3% of nurses reported experience of &quot;intermediate and high&quot; levels of workplace violence in the previous year. Nurses who were exposed to &quot;high risk bullying&quot; (RR = 2.29, CI: 1.53-3.41) and &quot;targeted bullying&quot; (RR = 4.86, CI: 3.32-7.11) had a higher risk of burnout than those who were not. Similarly, WPV exposed groups at &quot;intermediate and high&quot; levels had a higher risk of burnout (RR = 3.65, CI: 2.40-5.56) than WPV non-exposed groups. <br><br>CONCLUSION: Nurses' burnout could be decreased if issues like violence and bullying were addressed in the workplace. Hospital administrators, policymakers, and the government must all promote and implement an acceptable working environment.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
