Design – To test the proposed hypotheses, a correlational research design was used and a causalcomparative design was adopted to compare the aesthetic performance of frontline employees in terms of their demographic and personal characteristics. Methodology- Quantitative research methods were used in this study. Findings – The results showed that there was a significant, weak, and negative relationship between aesthetic labour performance in guest interactions factor and employee burnout levels.
