ARCE JULIO, Raquel et al. Relationship between work-related stress and psychosocial risk factors in the workplace of disability center employees working for a disability center located in Atlántico, Colombia. Rev Asoc Esp Espec Med Trab [online]. 2020, vol.29, n.1, pp.42-56. Epub 01-Jun-2020. ISSN 3020-1160.
Objectives:
The study examined the relationship between work-related stress and psychosocial risk factors in the workplace of disability center employees working for a disability center located in Atlántico, Colombia.
Material and methods:
The correlational descriptive study examined 35 employees working for a disability center. The employees were given a questionnaire produced by The Social Protection Ministry of Colombia and Javeriana University which measured work-related psychosocial risk factors and the employees’ level of work stress.
Results:
Among the employee sample studied, 31.4% of the workers indicated a high level of work stress. We found a positive relationship between work-related psychosocial risk factors and the employees’ level of work stress.
Conclusion:
We concluded that a high level of work-related psychosocial risk factors increases work stress in disability center employees. We recommend the intervention of the Occupational Health Department to help reduce work-related psychosocial risk factors to reduce disability center employees’ level of work-related stress.
