Introduction: The educational hospital climate provides meaningful learning, and is dependent on the perception of its staff. Burnout syndrome appears in professionals who work directly with other people, and both can have a significant influence on the training and performance of future physicians. Objective: To evaluate the correlation between the educational environment of hospitals and the Burnout syndrome in the Foundation of doctors in the Lambayeque region of Peru during 2018. Material and methods: A descriptive, cross-sectional and observational study was conducted on a sample that consisted of all foundation year doctors from the Lambayeque region during 2018. The Postgraduate Hospital Educational Environment Measurement (PHEEM) questionnaire was used to measure the educational climate, the Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey to measure burnout syndrome, as well as a socio-demographic-occupational questionnaire. Results: It was found that 28% of the foundation year doctors had burnout syndrome. A more positive than negative educational climate was observed in 5 hospitals in the Lambayeque region (PHEEM = 80-120), and only in a reference hospital of the Ministry of Health there was an educational climate with many problems (PHEEM = 40-80). There was a statistically significant correlation (p = 0.019), and an inverse and low correlation (r = −0.19) between hospital educational climate and burnout syndrome in foundation year doctors in the Lambayeque region. In addition, a significant correlation was found between the sociodemographic occupational factors and burnout syndrome, inverse and low with hours of sleep (r = −0.22 and p = 0.009), and direct and low with hours of work (r = 0.28 and p = .001). Conclusions: There is a low and inverse correlation between educational climate and burnout syndrome.
