ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Faculty members face demands such as research, outreach programs, and management activities. Such demands may expose faculty to burnout. Burnout affects the physical, psychological and social health of faculty members, but it is still unclear how it affects their quality of life. We aimed to assess the impact of burnout on the quality of life (QoL) of faculty members from different fields of knowledge. METHODS: Cross-sectional study using validated tools for measuring burnout and QoL (Oldenburg Burnout Inventory-OLBI and World Health Organization Quality of Life-Abbreviated version-WHOQOL-Bref) in a sample of 366 faculty members from a public university. Scores were analyzed using Student's t-test, analysis of variance (ANOVA), binary logistic regression, and structural equation modeling (SEM). RESULTS: More than a third of the faculty members (n = 127; 36.6%) suffered from burnout. Men had higher scores of quality of life than women in the physical health (p = 0.001; d<0.5), psychological (p = 0.001; d<0.5) and social relationships (p = 0.048; d<0.5) domains. Women were more exhausted than men (p = 0.001; d<0.5). Faculty members' perception of quality of life and burnout did not differ according to their field of knowledge (p>0.05). Participants who felt tired before arriving at work were less likely to report good quality of life (OR = 0.46; 95% CI = 0.21-0.99). Faculty members who stated they needed more time to relax after work were less likely to be satisfied with their health (OR = 0.20; 95% CI = 0.10-0.40). Burnout showed a negative association with quality of life (λ = 0.87; p < 0,001; df = 8). CONCLUSIONS: Burnout negatively affects faculty members' quality of life, regardless of their field of knowledge. Our results suggest the implementation of programs and actions to prevent burnout to faculty members, especially to women, as their quality of life may affect the quality of the education provided.

ABSTRACT

Este estudo propôs-se a investigar um modelo em que as variáveis satisfação no trabalho e percepção de suporte organizacional consistem em preditoras da síndrome de burnout em profissionais de enfermagem. A amostra do estudo foi composta por 339 trabalhadores de enfermagem de um hospital universitário, que responderam um instrumento composto por dados sócio-demográficos e por escalas validadas das variáveis estudadas. Após realizadas as análises de regressão múltipla (método stepwise), constatou-se que os maiores percentuais de explicação para as três dimensões da síndrome de burnout foram atribuídos às variáveis satisfação com a natureza do trabalho e à percepção de suporte organizacional. Os resultados evidenciam a importância da natureza do trabalho e do apoio organizacional para esses profissionais e alertam para que as organizações de saúde lhes estabeleçam estratégias de valorização. A prevenção desta síndrome é fundamental para a garantia de um atendimento de qualidade aos usuários dos serviços de saúde.


This study aimed to investigate a model in which the variables job satisfaction and perceived organizational support consist in predictors of the burnout syndrome in nurse professionals. The study sample consisted of 339 nurse staff of an university hospital, who answered an instrument composed of socio-demographic data and validated scales of the variables studied. After performing multiple regression analysis (stepwise method), it was found that the highest percentages of explanation for the three dimensions of burnout syndrome were assigned to the variables satisfaction with nature of the work and perceived organizational support. The results shows the importance of the nature of work and organizational support for these professionals and warns that health care organizations can establish strategies to value them. The prevention of this syndrome is critical to ensure a quality service to the users of health services.

Well-being at work is based on Positive Psychology, and is defined as a psychological state with positive affective links towards work and also towards the organisation. The purpose of this study was to look at the degree of well-being at work among nursing professionals who work at a University hospital and also identify differences between occupational categories and types of work contracts. The sample was made up of 340 professionals who answered valid scales of the following constructs: Work Satisfaction, Involvement with Work and Affective Organisational Commitment. For the analysis of the data we used SPSS, version 12, for descriptive statistics, and also for testing differences between means. The results showed an average level of well-being in the workplace and also differences between professional categories and work regime, when it comes to satisfaction with salaries and promotions, which can have a reflection in the quality of service provided to the patients of this University hospital.
