Abstract
The study was aimed at examining the role of job burnout in predicting counterproductive work
behaviors (CWB) among high school teachers. Maslach Burnout Inventory-ES (Maslach, Jackson,
& Leiter, 1996) and Counterproductive Work Behavior Checklist-32 (Spector, Fox, Penney,
Bruursema, Goh, and Kessler, 2006) were used to measure the constructs. The study comprised
two phases. Phase-I of the study aimed at translating the scales from English into Urdu and the
Phase-II of the study was carried out to explore the role of three factors of job burnout (including
emotional exhaustion, reduced personal accomplishment and depersonalization) in predicting
withdrawal abuse, and sabotage(the three forms of CWB). Multiple regression analysis revealed
that reduced personal accomplishment and depersonalization were significant positive predictors
of withdrawal and sabotage, whereas emotional exhaustion and depersonalization were found to be
significant positive predictors of abuse. Limitations and implications have also been discussed.
