ABSTRACT

Resumen El contexto laboral en los hospitales portugueses, caracterizado por los recortes económicos, puede contribuir al aumento de los niveles de burnout experimentados por el personal de enfermería. Además, la vulnerabilidad al estrés en estos profesionales afecta negativamente a la percepción del estrés en el contexto de trabajo. No obstante, el empowerment estructural es un proceso organizacional que puede prevenir y aliviar el burnout en este colectivo profesional. En este sentido, el objetivo de este estudio es comprobar el papel predictor del empowerment estructural y la vulnerabilidad al estrés sobre el burnout en una muestra de enfermeros portugueses. Se utilizó una muestra por conveniencia de 297 profesionales enfermeros de hospitales de Portugal. El core burnout se relacionó negativa y significativamente con todas las dimensiones del empowerment estructural, y positivamente con la vulnerabilidad al estrés. Los modelos de regresión lineal múltiple mostraron como predictores significativos del core burnout el acceso a recursos, el acceso a oportunidades y la vulnerabilidad al estrés. Las administraciones deben diseñar intervenciones centradas en el empowerment estructural, pero también en intervenciones individuales que mejoren las capacidades de afrontamiento del estrés.


Abstract The work environment in Portuguese hospitals, characterized by economic cutbacks, can lead to higher levels of burnout experienced by nursing staff. Furthermore, vulnerability to stress can negatively affect the perception of burnout in the workplace. However, structural empowerment is an organizational process that can prevent and decrease burnout among nurses. Consequently, the aim of the study was to examine to what extent structural empowerment and vulnerability to stress can play a predictive role in core burnout in a sample of Portuguese nurses. A convenience sample of 297 nursing staff members from Portuguese hospitals was used in this study. Core burnout was negatively and significantly related to all the dimensions of structural empowerment, and it was positively and significantly related to vulnerability to stress. Regression models showed that core burnout was significantly predicted by access to funds, access to opportunities and vulnerability to stress. Organizational administrations must make every effort in designing interventions focused on structural empowerment, as well as interventions focused on individual interventions that enhance skills for coping with stress.
