In business life, employees sacrifice many things from their social lives in return for the time they spend at work, and in return, they have expectations to be satisfied in terms of business life. The sacrifices and expectations of employees in each sector are different from each other. In this study, the effects of the working conditions of seafarers in the maritime sector, which is a sector where employees give almost all their attention and time to their work and are easily affected by the negativities that occur, are examined. As a result of the seafarers being affected by the sea life, when the work desire and motivation losses are at the highest level, the thought of leaving the job manifests itself and it can reach dimensions that will cause occupational accidents due to reasons such as carelessness and wrong or incomplete work caused by the work of the seafarer. In this study, a group of seafarers consisting of 8 "captains", 8 "chief engineers", 76 "seamen" and 64 "oiler", who have worked on ships for a long time, experienced the difficulties arising from the ship, stayed away from family and social life, and had to work with more difficult conditions compared to the current ship conditions, and a group of seafarers who are younger than the other group, many of whom have their first work experience, in total. In the study, forms consisting of 4 sections were distributed using the survey method and 5point Likert scaling as research management. Sociodemographic Information Form, Maslach Burnout Scale, Organizational Stress Scale, Beck Depression Inventory were used to obtain demographic information of the participating seafarers. The data were interpreted using SPSS statistical program. The statistical methods used were normal distributions with KolmogorovSmirnov test, reliability with Cronbach Alpha test, and parametric and nonparametric tests were applied to analyze other data. As a result of the study, it was revealed that marital status and having children did not increase the stress level of seafarers, and age and working time on board had an effect on burnout level.
