Also, frequency of emotion display, variety of emotion required to be expressed and attentiveness to required display rules increased burnout. Second, Resilience had moderating effect between deep acting and burnout. Third, the moderate effect of interaction of social support from leader with surface action was found at burnout. Also, moderating effect of social support from leader were shown in frequency of emotion display with burnout and attentiveness to required display rules with burnout.

본 연구의 목적은 콜센터 상담원의 감정노동과 소진의 관계에서 회복 탄력성과 사회적 지지의 조절효과를 확인하는 것이다. 콜센터 상담원을 대상으로 한 설문조사를 통해 총 444명의 자료를 수집하였으며, 감정노동이 소진을 예측하는지 확인하였고, 회복 탄력성과 사회적 지지의 조절효과를 탐색하였다. 연구 결과, 감정노동의 하위요인 중 내면 행위는 소진을 감소시켰고, 반대로 표면행위, 감정표현의 빈도, 다양성, 주의 정도는 소진을 증가시켰다. 조절변인인 회복 탄력성과 상사의 사회적 지지는 부분적으로 감정노동과 소진의 관계에서 완충효과가 나타났으나, 동료의 지지는 조절효과가 나타나지 않았다. 감정노동으로 야기되는 소진에 대한 예방 및 치료를 위해 본 연구에서 확인된 조절변인을 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
