ABSTRACT

El trabajo policial es considerado una profesión de alto estrés ya que estos funcionarios están expuestos a situaciones violentas, nocivas y exigentes. En la condición de estrés excesivo hay manifestaciones a nivel físico y psicológico que afectan directamente su quehacer policial y su vida personal y familiar. Esta investigación pretendió conocer el estado de salud física y mental de una muestra de policías, vinculados a la Escuela de Investigación Criminal (ESINC) y su relación con variables demográficas, grado policial, especialización y percepción que tienen sobre las órdenes impartidas. Se realizó un estudio descriptivo correlacional de corte transversal. Los participantes fueron seleccionados mediante un muestreo probabilístico estratificado con afijación proporcional. Los resultados muestran que quienes estiman que las órdenes impartidas en la Escuela son apresuradas, manifiestan dolor en alguna parte del cuerpo, notifican menos vitalidad, se sienten más agotados, cansados, desanimados y tristes. Quienes consideran que el trabajo es excesivo, indican que el dolor corporal les ha dificultado su trabajo habitual (incluido su trabajo fuera de casa y las tareas domésticas).


Policemen's job is considered to be a highly stressful profession, given the fact that professionals on this field are exposed to highly violent, harmful and challenging situations. Under highly stressful conditions there are both physical as well as psychological indicators that affect directly the policemen's performance as well as their personal and family life. The purpose of this research is to know the mental and physical health situation of the policemen working at the Criminal Research School (ESINC) and its association with demographic, hierarchy policeman grade, degree, area of specialty, and perceptions regarding imparted orders. A descriptive co-relational and transversal study was executed. The participants were selected by a stratified probabilistic sampling method with proportional affixation. The results show that those who consider that the orders received are abruptly given, suffer pain somewhere in their bodies, feel more tired and experience sadness. Those who consider that their job is excessively loaded manifested that the physical pain carries on difficulty when performing their daily duties and tasks (including those that pertain to personal matters).
