Social support from the work mates has been shown to have negative link with work stress levels, (Li et al., 2013). High social support is linked to low burn out and low stress levels among nurses in clinical settings.

Thus with these view there is need for investigation on the role played by counselling approaches and stress reduction techniques on managing work place burn outs.
