Abstract

Psychosocial risks at work have a strong impact on workers in every economic field, especially in health care. The aim of this study was to analyze psychosocial risk impact on workers in 3 areas of work, including doctors or functional specialists, nurses and support staff at work for healthcare employees in one of Rehabilitation centers in Latvia. The Copenhagen Psychosocial Questionnaire was used to assess psychosocial risks at work. Main results show that the high scores for work atmosphere and social support from colleagues reflect the favourable social environment in the context of employee relationships, but doctors and functional specialists face significant psychosocial risks characterized by high quantitative and emotional demands, compounded by job insecurity and inadequate managerial support. Nurses contend with high physical and emotional risks influenced by unpredictable work patterns, unclear roles, and insufficient social support, while support staff confront high workload, role conflicts, and pervasive job insecurity, minimal recognition and unsupportive workplace atmospheres. In general critical aspects include work-life balance, appreciation and self-rated health are at work. Continuation of the research will be related to investigating the psychosocial risks with cognitive tests for each research group. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The development of technology and changes in the world have dramatically increased the psycho-emotional risk exposure for office employees. At the work with computer and digital devices in the offices, employees are exposed to several risk factors of the work environment and one of the most frequent complaints is psycho-emotional load caused by various issues. There is no denying that sleep is one of the basic human needs, and sleep quality is important for maintaining and preserving good health and wellbeing. Sleep hygiene includes a set of various measures, such as the regularity of waking up and going to bed, that can affect and improve the quality of sleep. Sleep quality is closely related to mental health, as poor mental health can negatively affect sleep quality and vice versa. Reduced psycho-emotional load is associated with better sleep hygiene and also good sleep hygiene is associated with reduced psycho-emotional load. Health promotion measures and a work environment that supports sleep health could reduce psycho-emotional load experienced by employees, increase work ability, productivity and reduce the risk of accidents at the workplace. The aim of this study was to investigate psycho-emotional load and sleep hygiene importance for office employees.
