Description
Summary:Hotel employees often experience burnout and this phenomena could negatively impact either the employees or employers. The objective of this paper is to explore burnout and its relationship with flow with socio-cultural factors as the moderator. A cross-sectional study, utilizing 317 hotel employees in Kuching, Sarawak was analyzed via AMOS version 21.

The results suggest a starting point to shift the burnout phenomena as a favourable stage in improving flow experience.
