The sample consisted of 60 Dentists working in the Ministry of Health of the Apurimac Region, by means of a random probabilistic sampling stratified by gender. The information gathering technique was by clusters. The hypothesis test was checked by means of the Pearson parametric correlation statistic, to analyze the two variables measured in interval. The result was higher social skills, the lower the Burnout Syndrome in the Dentists of the Ministry of Health, a Pearson correlation of -0.696 was obtained with a determination factor of 0.675.
