Abstract Introduction: The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between organizational procrastination and cognitive arousal and burnout.  Method: This research is descriptive–correlation and the required data are obtained by using three questionnaire about organizational procrastination, dissonance arousal reduction and burnout scales on a sample of 100 individuals in Tehran governmental employees who are randomly chosen. Results: The results of correlation coefficient show that organizational procrastination is positively and significantly associated with cognitive arousal (p ≤ 0.01, r=0.402) and burnout (p ≤ 0.01, r=0.432). However, the correlation coefficient between burn-out and cognitive arousal (p ≥ 0.05, r= 0.191) is not significant. The results of the analysis prove a direct relationship between organizational procrastination and burn-out and cognitive arousal does not play a mediation role. Finally, the model is verified. Conclusion: The organizational procrastination level has influence on burnout level among Tehran governmental employees. Hence, some interventions to reduce organizational procrastination are recommended to decrease the burn-out.   Keywords: Organizational Procrastination, Cognitive Arousal, Burnout, Tehran Governmental Employees
