Qualidade de vida no trabalho e Burnout em equipes de Estratégia Saúde da Família

The aim of the present study was to analyze the Quality of Life at Work and Burnout Syndrome of health professionals who work in the Family Health Strategy program of a municipality in southern Santa Catarina. This was a cross-sectional study conducted with 145 health professionals. Data were collected using a sociodemographic questionnaire, Quality of Life Assessment Instrument - WHOQOL–bref, and Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). Pearson's chi-squared test was used to quantify the association or independence between Quality of Life and Burnout Syndrome and work-related variables. The results were analyzed using the SPSS Software and indicated the prevalence of depersonalization, emotional exhaustion, and average personal fulfillment, with the possibility of progressing to a Burnout Syndrome. Regarding the Quality of Life, most of the interviewees demonstrated physical, psychological domains, and environment as regular. These domains are directly related to professional occupation, and Community Health Agents are the professionals who most need to improve them, a fact that may be related to their insertion in the community and role assignments. This research points out the illness of health workers related to occupational suffering. The need to create reception strategies, as well as prevention and health recovery actions for these professionals, is highlighted.
