Abstract(s)
A psicologia da saúde ocupacional tem destacado a importância de identificar fatores psicossociais e organizacionais que promovam o bem-estar dos trabalhadores. No entanto, há pouca literatura sobre o contexto político, especialmente em Portugal. Este estudo procurou descrever exigências, recursos e indicadores de saúde ocupacional de políticos portugueses, e identificar preditores de burnout e work engagement. Participaram 71 políticos, que responderam a um protocolo online composto por: Questionário sociodemográfico e profissional; Questionário sobre exigências profissionais; Questionário sobre recursos profissionais; Short Index of Job Satisfaction; Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (UWES-9); Work-life Balance Scale (WLBS); Burnout Assessment Tool (BAT); Questionário de Autocuidado de Hamburgo (AUT). A preocupação com a exposição pública, responsabilidade e sobrecarga de trabalho associaram-se positivamente ao burnout e a variabilidade da rotina e a satisfação com o trabalho correlacionaram-se positivamente com o work engagement. Os resultados destacam a importância de políticas para reduzir riscos psicossociais e promover um ambiente de trabalho saudável para políticos.

This study aimed to describe the demands, resources, and occupational health indicators of Portuguese politicians and identify predictors of burnout and work engagement. 71 politicians participated by responding to an online protocol consisting of: a sociodemographic and professional questionnaire; a questionnaire on professional demands; a questionnaire on professional resources; the Short Index of Job Satisfaction; the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (UWES-9); the Work-life Balance Scale (WLBS); the Burnout Assessment Tool (BAT); and the Hamburg Self-care Questionnaire (AUT). Concerns about public exposure, responsibility, and work overload were positively associated with burnout, while routine variability and job satisfaction were positively correlated with work engagement. The results highlight the importance of policies to reduce psychosocial risks and promote a healthy work environment for politicians.
