The purpose of this study is comparison of general health, job stress, and burnout among ordinary and mental-retarded-students primary schools’ teachers in Khuzestan province. 125 mental-retarded-student teachers were selected by multistage random method. Also, 125 ordinary-student teachers were selected from the same area which mental-retarded-student teachers were chosen. Data gathering tools were general health questionnaire (GHQ), job stress generators questionnaire for teachers (JSQT), Maslach burnout inventory (BMI) questionnaire. For data anal-ysis, descriptive statistics methods (mean, standard deviation), and de-ductive methods (multi-variable variance analysis) were applied. Analysis results showed that mental-retarded-student teachers have worse general health in comparison with ordinary-student teachers. Also, findings indicated that there was no meaningful difference in job stress between the two groups of teacher. But burnout in all dimensions (emotional analysis, depersonalization, and lack of individual success) was more observed in mental-retarded-student teachers in comparison with ordi-nary-student teachers.
