Abstract :
This study was conducted to predict task performance through job demands, job resources and burnout. Statistical population of this correlation study was all the working employees of two textile complexes in Isfahan. 154 employees (116 male and 38 female) were selected through stratified random sampling and responded to the Task Demands Questionnaire (Chen & Kao, 2012), Job Resources Questionnaire (Chen & Kao, 2012), Burnout Questionnaire (Chen & Kao, 2012) and the task Performance Questionnaire (Chen & Kao, 2012). Data were analyzed by using Pearson correlation coefficient and multiple regression analysis, stepwise method. Results of regression analysis revealed that only burnout can predict task performance (P < 0.01). The results of this research indicated that burnout could be a Factor that weakens the level of task performance.
