Abstract
Expatriate job burnout and work engagement are not widely studied despite their importance in the global labor market. Using a self-reported online questionnaire, the present study investigated the relationship between job burnout, job mismatch and work engagement in relation to psychological adaptation for international professionals (N = 63) working in Sweden. The results showed that psychological adaptation moderated the relationships between community and workload mismatch and burnout, and the relationships between community, workload, reward and fairness mismatch and work engagement. However, the expected group differences between newly arrived and seasoned employees were not found.
