However, the college teachers confront significant challenges including stress and burnout relating to job.

This study is conducted to analyse the impact of Work-related Burnout on the Work Commitment of College Teachers working in Self-financing Colleges in Dharmapuri District of Tamil Nadu State. Based on a Sample of 150 College Teachers working in Self-financing Colleges, descriptive and inferential analyses are carried out. Independent Sample “t” Test, One-way ANOVA, Correlation and Multiple Regression are used to test the hypotheses and analyse the relationship/influence of the Work-related Burnout on the Work Commitment of College Teachers. The study found that Female college teachers have perceived more Work-related Burnout than their male counterpart. There are high positive correlations between Work-related Burnout factors and Work Commitment of College Teachers working in Self-financing Colleges.
