This study showed that self-reported levels of burnout among Swedish midwives increased over the ten-year period studied. The largest increase was found in the subscale work burnout. Midwives with shorter work experience and those with shift work were the most vulnerable to burnout. Improved organisation of midwifery services needs to be designed to ensure healthy working conditions for midwives.
