Abstract	:	The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between occupational burnout among special education teachers who provide services to students with intellectual disabilities in Saudi Arabia and the experience of teachers, teaching degree levels they have achieved, grade levels they are teaching, gender, mentoring, collaboration between specialists, and class size. There were 255 participants in this study. The data were analyzed using a multiple regression analysis. The results indicated that gender was the only statistically significant independent variable relative to the burnout dimensions. The study found that female teachers had a higher level of emotional exhaustion compared to their male counterparts, and male teachers had a higher level of depersonalization than their female counterparts. Further studies to examine other independent variables such as social status, social supports, use of technology, and teachers’ income to learn if any are predictors of teacher burnout are recommended to determine strategies that may reduce the burnout of special education teachers.
