Resumo

A pandemia de COVID-19 acarreta desafios para os profissionais de saúde em todo o mundo, devido às exigências impostas aos sistemas de saúde. Pretendemos investigar o modo como a preocupação com o risco influencia o burnout via afeto positivo e negativo. O papel moderador da exposição ao risco (baixa, média e alta) é também examinado. Uma amostra de 257 profissionais de saúde portugueses respondeu a um questionário. A análise de modelos de equações estruturais foi aplicada. Os resultados mostraram que a preocupação com o risco influencia positivamente o afeto negativo – mas não o positivo – e, consequentemente, o burnout. Este efeito indireto não foi superior para os indivíduos do grupo de alto risco (vs. baixo risco), o que poderá ser explicado por fatores individuais e organizacionais atenuantes. Estas evidências chamam a atenção das organizações de saúde para os efeitos adversos da preocupação com o risco no bem-estar destes profissionais.
