In the paper, we discuss the topic of teacher burnout and job satisfaction in Slovenian primary schools. We conducted a quantitative survey during the COVID-19 epidemic in which two Slovene-translated and standardised questionnaires were used, namely the Maslach Burnout Inventory and the Job Satisfaction Questionnaire. We determined the burnout level of teachers. Regarding three dimensions of burnout, teachers highlighted the highest burnout rate in the emotional exhaustion dimension. The results of the research confirm that teachers experience different levels of burnout according to their length of service, and illustrate differences according to their field of work. At the same time, the results of our research show that teachers in Slovenia are the most satisfied with their relationships with colleagues, and the least satisfied with their salary. The results of our research provide insight into teachers' experiences of burnout and job satisfaction. They can serve as guidelines for schools and management in developing strategies to prevent and monitor burnout and teacher satisfaction with their job, and in planning and organising the work of employees.
