The sample of firefighters (N=200) was selected through purposive sampling technique from Lahore, Sialkot, Sheikhupura, Sargodha, and Gujranwala. To collect the data, Health Safety Executive Management Standard Indicator Tool (HSE-MSIT), State-Trait Resilience Inventory, and Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey (MBI-GS) were used to measure the occupational stress, resilience, and burnout. According to Mappi guidelines, HSE-MSIT and MBI-GS were translated in to Urdu language before use. To analyze the data, Point Bi-serial correlation, hierarchical linear regression, moderation analysis, independent sample t test, and independent measure ANOVA were used. The results of moderation analysis revealed the significant moderating role of resilience between the relationship of occupational stress and burnout among firefighters. The results of hierarchical linear regression revealed occupational stress as significant predictor of burnout. The results of the research confirm the predictive role of occupational stress for burnout while resilience serves the role as buffer which reduces the impact of occupational stress on burnout.en-USThesis
