Innovative changes in education have significantly increased teachers’ workload and stress levels, leading to higher rates of burnout. This burnout adversely affects both their professional performance and personal well-being, highlighting the urgent need to address teachers’ mental health as a key factor in improving educational quality and effectiveness. This pilot study aims to explore the relationship between burnout and quality of working life (QWL) among school teachers in Bangkalan, Indonesia and Vladivostok, Russia, and to compare the levels of burnout and QWL between these two countries. Using a correlational research design, data were collected from a sample of 60 teachers, with 30 participants from Bangkalan, Indonesia and 30 from Vladivostok, Russia. Data analysis included correlation analysis to examine the relationship between burnout and QWL and comparative statistical tests to identify differences between groups. The results indicate a significant negative correlation between burnout and QWL in both countries, demonstrating that increased burnout is associated with a decreased quality of working life. Furthermore, the analysis revealed a significant difference in burnout levels, with Russian teachers experiencing higher burnout than their Indonesian counterparts. However, no statistically significant difference was found in the overall QWL between the two groups. These findings underscore the importance of developing targeted interventions to support teachers’ mental health and improve their working conditions in order to enhance educational outcomes.

Инновационные изменения в образовании значительно увеличили рабочую нагрузку и уровень стресса учителей, что привело к их более частому выгоранию. Выгорание негативно сказывается на профессиональной деятельности и личном благополучии, что подчеркивает необходимость решения проблемы психического здоровья учителей как ключевого фактора повышения качества и эффективности образования. Целью пилотного исследования является изучение взаимосвязи между выгоранием и качеством трудовой жизни (КТЖ) школьных учителей в Бангкалане (Индонезия) и Владивостоке (Россия), а также сравнение уровней выгорания и КТЖ в этих двух странах. Были собраны данные у 60 учителей: по 30 участников из Бангкалана и Владивостока. Анализ данных включал корреляционный анализ для изучения связи между выгоранием и КТЖ, а также сравнительные статистические тесты для выявления различий между группами участников. Результаты показали значимую отрицательную корреляцию между выгоранием и КТЖ в обеих странах, что демонстрирует связь между ростом выгорания и снижением качества трудовой жизни. Кроме того, анализ выявил существенные различия в уровне выгорания: российские учителя испытывают его в большей степени по сравнению с индонезийскими. Однако статистически значимых различий в общем уровне КТЖ между двумя группами выявлено не было. Эти выводы подчеркивают важность разработки целевых мер по поддержке психического здоровья учителей и улучшению условий их труда в целях повышения качества образования.
