The dualistic nature of the present study explored if there existed any relationship between organizational silence, job insecurity, job satisfaction, and burnout among EFL instructors and if job satisfaction me- diated the latent relationships among organizational silence, job insecurity, and burnout. To this end, 120 EFL instructors from different Azad University branches in the Fars province, Iran, chosen based on one- stage convenience cluster sampling filled out four questionnaires, i.e. questionnaire, Burnout Inventory, and Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire. To investigate any relationship between organizational silence, job insecurity, and burnout among EFL instructors, the researchers performed the Pearson Correlation coefficient. Additionally, to investigate if job satisfaction mediated the relationships between the three variables, the researchers ranpath analysis via Amos 21. The results revealed direct positive relationships between organizational silence, job insecurity, and burnout among EFL instructors and job satisfaction did not mediate these relationships indicating that organizational silence and job insecurity could directly cause burnout or affect the probable level of burnout among EFL instructors and their level of satisfaction did not intervenet he present study provides significant contributions to principals, managers, and organi- zational policymakers in educational settings by warning them of the important factors that cause job bur- nout among EFL instructors and affect their well-being and efficacy.The results also added some more insight about EFL instructors‟ affairs to the body of related literature.
