The sample size was selected based on Cochran formula and with convenience sampling of 500 people. Data collection tools included the Maslach burnout inventory (MBI) of Maslach and et al  (1986), short grit scale  (GRIT–S) of Duckworth and Quin  (2009) and multidimensional perceived social support scale  (MSPSS) of Zimet and et al  (1988). Statistical analysis of data was performed using SPSS version 28 and AMOS software. The results showed that grit  (p<0.05, β = -0.33) has a significant direct effect on job burnout. Finally, perceived social support  (p<0.05, β = -.40) has a significant direct effect on job burnout and was able significant mediating role in the relationship between grit and job burnout. Also, proposed model had an acceptable fitness to the data  (RMSEA=0/04 p<0/05) and analyses also revealed that %59 of variance of job burnout was explained. It can be concluded that due to the significant mediating role of perceived social support, it is possible to prevent burnout in satellite employees by using career empowermentinterventions and grit traning
