Abstract(s)
Nos últimos anos, as doenças psicossomáticas têm se tornado cada vez mais frequentes nas diversas áreas profissionais, gerando crescente preocupação na sociedade. Dentre essas doenças, destaca-se a Síndrome de Burnout, que será o foco deste estudo. A Síndrome de Burnout pode ser definida como uma resposta ao estresse crônico experimentado por indivíduos cujas profissões exigem interação constante com outras pessoas, caracterizando-se como um esgotamento físico e emocional relacionado ao trabalho. Embora compartilhe semelhanças com outras condições psicossomáticas, a Síndrome de Burnout é exclusiva do contexto laboral, sendo tratada por meio da modificação do estilo de vida e das condições de trabalho, aliados ao suporte psicológico. Em casos mais graves, o tratamento pode exigir acompanhamento psiquiátrico e o uso de medicamentos. Este estudo qualitativo visa explorar as manifestações da Síndrome de Burnout, com o objetivo de contribuir para a compreensão de gestores e administradores sobre as necessidades de apoio dos colaboradores que enfrentam essa condição no ambiente de trabalho, além de fornecer subsídios para futuras pesquisas práticas sobre o tema. A partir dos relatos analisados, observou-se que as organizações, muitas vezes, não reconhecem as manifestações da Síndrome de Burnout, o que dificulta a assistência adequada aos funcionários afetados. Os trabalhadores mais propensos a desenvolver a síndrome são aqueles altamente motivados pelo compromisso organizacional, que se dedicam intensamente ao seu trabalho.
In recent years, psychosomatic illnesses have become increasingly frequent in various professional areas, generating growing concern in society. Among these illnesses is Burnout Syndrome, which will be the focus of this study. Burnout Syndrome can be defined as a response to chronic stress experienced by individuals whose professions require constant interaction with other people, and is characterised as work-related physical and emotional exhaustion. Although it shares similarities with other psychosomatic conditions, Burnout Syndrome is exclusive to the labour context and is treated by modifying lifestyle and working conditions, combined with psychological support. In more serious cases, treatment may require psychiatric counselling and the use of medication. This qualitative study aims to explore the manifestations of burnout syndrome, contribute to managers’ and administrators’ understanding of the support needs of employees who face this condition in the workplace, and provide input for future practical research. From the reports analysed, it was observed that organisations often do not recognise the manifestations of Burnout Syndrome, which makes it challenging to provide adequate assistance to affected employees. The workers most likely to develop the syndrome are those highly motivated by organisational commitment and intensely dedicated to their work.
