Occupational stress as a state of long-term stress leads to physiological, psychosomatic and psychological reactions which results in deterioration of health conditions, mental and physical fatigue and deterioration in the quality of professional engagement. Occupational stress in a profession in which among others include professional educators and teachers, educators, therapists and psychologists leads to saturation of professional and combustion (so-called burnout syndrome). This syndrome is manifested by the range of reactions that range from the gradual loss of energy and the incidence of resistance to work, then the resistance to individuals covered by the education and treatment, the incidence of resistance and lack of cooperation with colleagues. The author presents the results of previous studies that form the basis of description of distribution, treatment and prevention of BOS in risky professions. Final discussion focused on strategies to overcome and prevent the emergence of professional combustion, and expansion of professional skills of experts in education in this field.

Profesionalni stres kao stanje dugotrajne napetosti dovodi do fizioloških, psihosomatskih i psiholoških reakcija čija je posledica pogoršanje zdravstvenog stanja, psihička i fizička iscrpljenost kao i pogoršanje kvaliteta profesionalnog angažovanja. Profesionalni stres kod profesija u koje pored drugih spadaju i profesije vaspitača i nastavnika, pedagoga, defektologa i psihologa dovodi do profesionalnog zasićenja i sagorevanja (tzv. burnout syndrome). Ovaj sindrom manifestuje se kroz opseg različitih reakcija koje se kreću od postepenog nestanka energije i javljanja otpora prema poslu, zatim otpora prema osobama koje su obuhvaćene edukacijom i tretmanom, do javljanja otpora i nemogućnosti saradnje sa kolegama. U radu se prezentuju rezultati dosadašnjih istraživanja koja predstavljaju osnovu deskripcije rasprostranjenosti, tretmana i prevencije sindroma sagorevanja u rizičnim profesijama. Finalna razmatranja fokusirana su na strategije savladavanja i sprečavanja nastanka profesionalnog sagorevanja, kao i proširivanja profesionalnih kompetencija stručnjaka u obrazovanju u ovoj oblasti.
