  • Mobbing, Subjective Perception, Demographic Factors And
    Cent Eur J Public Health 2020; 28 (Suppl): S57–S64 MOBBING, SUBJECTIVE PERCEPTION, DEMOGRAPHIC FACTORS AND PREVALENCE OF BURNOUT SYNDROME IN NURSES Šárka Vévodová, Jiří Vévoda, Bronislava Grygová Department of Humanities and Social Sciences, Faculty of Health Sciences, Palacký University in Olomouc, Olomouc, Czech Republic SUMMARY Objectives: The aim of the study was to assess the prevalence of burnout syndrome and mobbing, to determine their mutual relationship, and to identify predictors related to the probability of occurrence of burnout syndrome in general nurses working in hospitals. Methods: The work is designed as a cross-sectional study. The research took place in 2018 and the sample included 250 general nurses. Sta- tistical evaluation was performed by means of descriptive statistics, Spearman’s correlation coefficient, and logistic regression. Three standardized questionnaires were used – Maslach Burnout Inventory, Negative Questionnaire Act and SUPSO. Results: The research revealed burnout syndrome in the area of emotional exhaustion in 28.8% of nurses, of depersonalization in 15.2%, and in the area of personal accomplishment in 38.4%. 51.2% of nurses never experienced mobbing at workplace, one act of mobbing over the last six months was reported by 17.6% of respondents, two and more acts by 31.2%. Logistic regression revealed that the probability of occurrence of burnout syndrome in the area of emotional exhaustion is influenced by age, sex and by the size of an urban area, it is increased by anxiety and depression. In the area of depersonalization the probability of incidence increases with impulsiveness and dejection. In the area of personal accomplishment the probability of burnout syndrome incidence is increased by the lack of psychological wellbeing and activeness, by restlessness and impulsiveness.

  • Problems in Occupational Disease Compensation for Occupational Diseases
    Upjohn Institute Press Problems in Occupational Disease Compensation for Occupational Diseases Leslie I. Boden Boston University Chapter 13 (pp. 323-326) in: Current Issues in Workers' Compensation James Chelius, ed. Kalamazoo, MI: W.E. Upjohn Institute for Employment Research, 1986 DOI: 10.17848/9780880995443.ch13 Copyright ©1986. W.E. Upjohn Institute for Employment Research. All rights reserved. 13 Problems in Occupational Disease Compensation Leslie I. Boden School of Public Health Boston University The papers presented in this section cover an important set of issues in workers' compensation for occupational diseases. First, we are presented with data indicating that the current state systems have serious problems compensating victims of asbestos-related diseases and, by inference, other occupational diseases which are even less well understood. Then, we are given proposals for solving the problems of compensating occupational diseases, solutions proposed to be implemented at the federal level. Spatz's paper presents a "best case" picture of occupa tional disease compensation in the United States. He chooses a state system with no artificial barriers to compensation; the most well-known occupational disease agent; and workers who had been under study and were therefore likely to be more aware of the occupational origin of their diseases. In spite of these favorable conditions, Spatz documents serious problems faced by survivors of insulation workers who died from asbestos-related diseases. The issues are familiar ones, echoing those discussed by Earth and Hunt, 1 and by Earth2 in his recent study of asbestos insulation workers. In Spatz's 313 314 Occupational Disease Compensation study, workers' compensation claims for asbestos-related disease were generally controverted, resulting in long delays, high legal expenses, and uncertain outcomes.

  • F252-117-000 Occupational Disease Claims in Workers' Compensation
    Occupational Disease Claims in Workers’ Compensation Coal miner Lee Hipshire, 1976. Courtesy of Earl Dotter. Working together to keep people working Occupational Disease Claims in Workers' Compensation Occupational diseases are different from occupational injuries. Occupational diseases are defined clinically, but in the workers’ compensation system, they are also defined legally. So that you can help workers who may be experiencing an occupational disease, this document will help you understand how the Department of Labor & Industries (L&I), or the self-insured employer, decides which claims to approve, or allow, due to occupational disease. This manual also explains how to gather the employment history needed to manage occupational disease claims and what conditions must be reported to L&I or another agency. Carpal tunnel syndrome, noise-induced hearing loss, and asthma, when work- related, are examples of conditions that L&I considers occupational diseases. When making determinations about occupational disease claims, it is important for health-care providers to keep in mind the following principles: A. Occupational disease claims must be filed within two years following the date the worker receives written notice from a physician that the occupational disease exists and a claim for disability benefits may be filed.1 B. Occupational disease is defined as an infection or disease that “arises naturally and proximately” out of employment.2 C. Claims based on mental conditions caused by stress are excluded from the occupational disease definition.3 Criteria for allowance of occupational disease claims To determine allowance of an occupational disease, claim managers use the following criteria: A. A physician must present an opinion that work conditions, on a more- probable-than-not basis (a greater than 50% chance), are a cause of the disease or have aggravated or “lit up” a preexisting condition; AND B.
