There was not a significant correlation between the occupational burnout and spiritual intelligence in midwives. There was a significant and direct correlation between the occupational burnout with age (p=0.02, r= 0.16) and work experience (p= 0.001, r=0.26). Also there was a significant and reverse correlation between the occupational burnout and income satisfaction (p=0.01,r=-0.19) and job satisfaction (r= -0.46, p0.001). Occupational burnout was higher in official midwives (p=0.01).Conclusion: The burnout of midwives was moderate and there was no significant relationship between burnout and spiritual intelligence.
