PALENZUELA, Patricia; DELGADO, Naira y RODRIGUEZ, José A.. Exploring the relationship between contextual performance and burnout in healthcare professionals. Rev. psicol. trab. organ. [online]. 2019, vol.35, n.2, pp.115-121. Epub 05-Sep-2019. ISSN 2174-0534. https://dx.doi.org/10.5093/jwop2019a13.
Contextual performance is assumed to be related to professionals’ quality of working life and health. This research aims to compare the levels of contextual performance at work in different hospital units, and to analyse the relationship between contextual performance and burnout syndrome. A total sample of 222 participants from a tertiary hospital took part in the study. Scores on contextual performance and burnout in five different hospital units were compared. The results showed that contextual performance is closely related with burnout. Also, results showed statistically significant differences in the degree of contextual performance at work by hospital unit. Overall, these results are significant for the development of health management strategies that promote contextual performance at work, thus improving the health and quality of work of health-care professionals.
