Abstract(s)
Diversos estudos comprovam a capacidade dos fatores de risco psicossociais no local de trabalho afetarem a saúde física, mental e social dos trabalhadores. Face a esta problemática, este estudo tem como objetivo identificar os fatores de risco a que os profissionais que exerçam a sua atividade em lares de idosos estão expostos, bem como averiguar uma possível relação entre as condições do trabalho e a satisfação dos trabalhadores no local de trabalho. Este estudo é transversal quantitativo, recorrendo a profissionais que exerçam a sua atividade em lares de idosos. A amostra final compreende 118 indivíduos. Na recolha de dados foram utilizados os COPSOQ II e um questionário de avaliação das condições de trabalho. Os fatores de risco psicossociais mais percecionados foram as exigências cognitivas e emocionais, a insegurança laboral e a influência no trabalho, sendo as principais consequências para a saúde problemas em dormir, burnout e stress. Foi estabelecida uma correlação significativa positiva entre a perceção positiva das condições do local de trabalho e a satisfação no trabalho. Assim, defendemos a sensibilização para a adoção de medidas minimizadoras da exposição aos fatores de risco e os riscos psicossociais.
ABSTRACT - The psychosocial risks are the major emerging risk in the workplace. Many studies prove the impact of psychosocial risk factors on physical, mental and social aspects of workers' well-being. So the main goal of this study is to identify the risk factors to which the professionals who practice their activity in nursing homes are exposed to, as well as to find out the possible relation between the work conditions and job satisfaction. In this project, a quantitative cross-sectional study was carried out, with professionals who practice their activity in nursing homes. The final sample comprises of 118 individuals. COPSOQ II and a questionnaire about work conditions were used for data collection. The most perceived psychosocial risk factors were cognitive demands, emotional demands, job insecurity and influence at work. Concerning the psychosocial risks, the most perceived were sleeping issues, burnout, and stress. A significant positive correlation was established between the perception of working conditions and job satisfaction. So we advocate awareness of the leadership to this problem and adoption, on the workplaces, of measures that minimize the risk factors and psychosocial risks.
