PAs who reported to work “always” or “often” beyond the regular number of hours for their position were about 4.7 times more likely to consider resigning than those who never worked beyond regular hours. However, screening for burnout was the strongest predictor of consideration to resign: PAs who screened positively were about 15 times more likely to consider resigning, underscoring the effect of burnout in the workplace.
