BOS typically strikes the helping professions like the teachers. Objective. The aims of this study are: 1) clarify the concept of BOS, as currently configured in the international scientific literature; 2) analyze the psychosocial risk factors in teachers; 3) develop a methodology for the assessment and prevention of the risk of BOS in the teachers. Methods. The literature review followed some of the PRISMA guidelines criteria. Results and discussion. The results of the study highlight BOS as a risk factor specific and distinct from labor-related stress. A strategy called VA.RI.B.O is proposed (Burn-Out Recognition) for teachers.
