Burnout and job satisfaction are often associated with all occupations, including Community-Based Rehabilitation (CBR) workers. This study aims to identify burnout and worker satisfaction working at CBR in Kedah state of Malaysia. The workers who have working experience of at least six months in CBR in Kedah and can understand English are eligible to participate in the study. Participants must meet the criteria to be involved in the study. Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) and Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire (Short version) questionnaires are the main instruments that will be used to be answered by participants. The scores are calculated using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) Version 27.0. The results showed a low level of burnout in Emotional Exhaustion (EE) and Personal Accomplishment (PA) subscales while the Depersonalization (DP) showed a moderate level of burnout. The job satisfaction level showed the mean score of 65.32 (SD=16.86) which indicated the high job satisfaction level among CBR workers. Other than that, there was a significant positive relationship between burnout and job satisfaction among CBR workers while there was no correlation between demographic data and job satisfaction. This study will help the higher education system for occupational therapy and healthcare professionals to plan and organize the most effective strategy of action to increase awareness regarding burnout and job satisfaction through the community involvement from the occupational therapy students to spread the awareness regarding this issue.
