Factores de riesgos psicosociales que afectan el desempeño del personal del Centro de Especialidades Médicas Mederi.

Abstract

A psychosocial risk factor is considered a condition present in a person's work that can negatively affect their health, performance, development, and well-being at work and at home. The main objective of this study was to analyze psychosocial risks among Mederi Health Center employees through surveys to determine their impact on health. A 58-item questionnaire developed by the Ministry of Labor in 2018 was administered voluntarily and anonymously to ensure participant confidentiality. The results were notable, showing that 93% of employees presented a low risk level and 7% a medium risk level, with predominance in the dimensions of dual presence, recovery, self-perceived health, and workload and pace. It was determined that, between June and August, the Mederi Specialty Center staff did not suffer any high-level psychosocial impact. Considering this, it is recommended to continue investigating other intra- and extra-work aspects that could influence the dimensions that showed intermediate levels of psychosocial risk.
