AB  - To detect burnout syndrome (BO) in a sample of nurses employed at the National Cancer Institute (INCan), and its association with variables identified in the literature. A random sample of 172 persons was obtained; overall response rate was 89%. The Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) was used to determine the presence of symptoms of BO, together with an individual questionnaire for collection of the remaining variables. Approximately 60% of respondents reported moderate 
and high levels of symptoms; the BO syndrome was observed in only 8%. Sociodemographic variables significantly associated with BO were age (X2=16.8 p<0.002) and having children (X2=9.50 p<0.0008). Job variables associated with BO were working positions (X2=9.82 p<0.04) and work area (X2=18.56 p<0.005). Organizational variables significantly associated with BO were working in an inadequate environment (X2=6.18 p<0.04). Other work-related variables were 
overload (X2=14.26 p<0.0008) and long work days (X2=7.47 p<0.02). General nurses and outpatient clinic personnel seem to be at-risk groups, which should be considered, especially when institutional interventions and/or prevention programs are being considered.
