<![CDATA[Introduction: High workload among educational staff may adversely impact mental health, leading to stress, fatigue, and anxiety. In academic settings, particularly in medical faculties, complex task demands often result in psychological pressure. This study is essential to understand whether workload influences the mental health of educational staff at the Faculty of Medicine Universitas Nahdlatul Ulama Surabaya (FK UNUSA). Objective: This study aims to analyze the relationship between workload and mental health (burnout) among educational staff at the FK UNUSA. Methods: This quantitative study employed a survey approach. Data were collected using standardized questionnaires measuring two main variables: workload (NASA-TLX) and burnout (Maslach Burnout Inventory). A total of 21 educational staff members participated. Statistical analysis was conducted using the Spearman Rank correlation test to examine the relationship between the two variables. Results: The findings indicate a significant correlation between workload and mental health (p = 0.016). Educational staff with higher workloads tended to experience burnout. However, at the FK UNUSA, most educational staff reported mild to moderate workloads, while their mental health conditions were generally categorized as low to moderate burnout. Conclusions: A significant relationship exists between workload and burnout among educational staff at the FK UNUSA (p-value = 0.016). Although workload is an important factor, it does not act alone. Other contributing factors, such as social support, emotional stress, and work environment, also play critical roles in determining burnout levels.]]>
