Resumo(s)
O presente estudo teve como objetivo perceber se existiam nas forças policiais diferenças significativas entre a segurança física laboral percecionada e o stress ocupacional e se essas diferenças são influenciadas pelo sexo, durante o primeiro confinamento provocado pelo covid-19, compreendido entre março e maio de 2020, em Portugal. Neste estudo, participaram 174 profissionais das forças policiais, sendo que os dados foram obtidos de forma online e presencial, através da aplicação de um questionário. No que diz respeito aos resultados obtidos, verificou-se que, quanto menor a perceção de segurança física laboral sentida pelos participantes, mais elevados eram os níveis de stress ocupacional reportados, ou seja, a segurança física laboral foi encontrada como preditora do stress ocupacional, sendo que o sexo não teve influência sobre essas duas variáveis. A pesquisa realizada assim como os resultados obtidos neste estudo podem vir a providenciar um contributo pertinente na identificação e implementação de programas e estratégias que possam contribuir para a prevenção e o mitigar do stress percecionado por estes profissionais em futuras situações de emergência.
The present study aimed to understand whether significant differences existed among police forces in terms of perceived physical safety at work and occupational stress, and whether these differences were influenced by sex during the first covid-19 lockdown, which occurred between March and May 2020, in Portugal. A total of 174 police officers participated in this study, with data collected both online and in-person through the administration of a questionnaire. Regarding the results, it was found that the lower the perception of physical safety at work, the higher the reported levels of occupational stress. In other words, physical safety at work was identified as a predictor of occupational stress, while sex did not influence these two variables. The research conducted, as well as the results obtained in this study, may provide a valuable contribution to the identification and implementation of programs and strategies that could help prevent and mitigate perceived stress among these professionals in future emergency situations.
