This study validated the Burnout Assessment Tool (BAT) for Spanish workers. Traditional burnout assessment using the MBI has limitations due to changes in the work environment. The research analyzed the BAT's reliability, factorial validity, and convergent validity using two Spanish worker samples. Results showed excellent reliability and supported the BAT's internal structure. The BAT total score significantly correlated with health, anxiety, work ability, and turnover intention, indicating convergent validity. The study concludes the BAT is a suitable tool for measuring burnout in Spanish workers, addressing limitations of the MBI.
