The purpose of this study is to examine the moderating effects of resilience on the relation between job-related trauma exposure, burnout and depression to social work public officials. The data were collected from 182 social work public officials in Gwangju Metropolitan City. Hierarchical multiple regression analysis was used and the results were as follows. First, social work public officials’ depression showed a mean score of 7.72 close to ‘mild depression. Second, social work public official’s jobrelated trauma exposure and burnout were positively associated with depression, while resilience contributed to reduce the level of depression. Third, the effect of job-related trauma exposure and depression was moderated by resilience. Especially, under the low level of job-related trauma exposure, resilience has a significant effect to buffer the impact of trauma exposure on depression. Based on the results of this study, political and practical implications for preventing depression of social work public officials are discussed.
