CORDOVA MONTES, Christian Diego et al. Psychosocial Risk Factors and Fatigue in Workers of An Ecuadorian Pharmaceutical Company During the Year 2021. Rev. cuban. salud trabajo [online]. 2023, vol.24, n.1 Epub 01-Abr-2023. ISSN 1991-9395.
Introduction:
Psychosocial risk factors have been linked to different affectations, among which is fatigue, which not only affects the health and well-being of the worker, but also interrupts productivity.
Objective:
To evaluate the level of psychosocial risk present in the organizational environment of the staff of an Ecuadorian pharmaceutical company.
Method:
A non-experimental quantitative study with an analytical cross-sectional design was conducted. The study sample consisted of 112 workers. The Ecuadorian psychosocial risk assessment questionnaire called MDT 2018 and Yoshitake's subjective symptoms of fatigue questionnaire were used.
Results:
The presence of mental fatigue has a significant correlation with the self-perceived health subdimension (rb = .275, p < 0.05), while physical fatigue maintains a significant relationship with the recovery dimension (rb = .223, p < 0.05), with the subdimensions workplace harassment (rb = .196, p < 0.05) and workaholism (rb = .209, p < 0.05); however, the correlations are weak.
Conclusions:
Workers presented low results compared to the international literature; however, it is important to address the lack of recovery of workers between one workday and another to prevent the presence of physical and mental fatigue within the company.
