Exploring the Relationship between Contextual Performance and Burnout in Healthcare Professionals The objective of this research is to compare the levels of contextual performance at work in different hospital units and to analyse the relationship between contextual performance and one of the most important psychosocial risks in the healthcare context: the burnout syndrome. Contextual performance at work can be defined as the expression of benevolent and voluntary behaviour towards the organisation, which is beyond a worker's formal obligations and which is not directly recognised by the organisation he or she works for (Organ, 1988). These acts are important because they form the organisational, social, and psychological context for task activities and procedures: individuals contribute to organisational effectiveness by doing things that are not defined within their main functions, but that are important because they shape the objectives of the organisation and the social context that supports the activities (Borman & Motowidlo, 1993). These activities have been labelled discretionary behaviours (Zeithaml, Parasuraman, & Berry, 1990), contextual performance (Borman & Motowidlo, 1993), or organisational citizenship behaviours (Bateman & Organ, 1983; Smith, Organ, & Near, 1983).

Contextual performance includes activities such as helping others in h t t p s : / / j o u r n a l s. c o p m a d r i d. o rg / j wo p Financing: This article has been partially funded by the
