“…On the other hand, it is noteworthy that the imbalance of task demands, workers' capabilities and characteristics, i.e., MWL due to both underload and mental overload, can generate worker discouragement or frustration in their work environment, causing the appearance of mental and physical illnesses 5 . For this reason, the importance of maintaining adequate MWL to guarantee a safe work environment is reinforced 6 .…”

“…Likewise, the importance of providing workers with the opportunity to take breaks or the possibility of alternating between jobs that require excessive demands stands out, with a view to recovering from the fatigue generated by the type of role they perform. Therefore, it is reinforced that professionals must be given the opportunity to take breaks freely when they feel the need 5,23 . Furthermore, adequate rest outside of work for energy recovery is essential to avoid emotional fatigue 24 .…”

Objective: To analyze the relationship between mental workload and social support in Primary Health Care workers. Method: This is a quantitative cross-sectional survey with healthcare professionals from Primary Health Care in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Data were collected online between July 2021 and April 2022, using the questionnaire with sociodemographic, employment and healthcare profile information; Job Stress Scale; and Subjective Mental Workload Scale. Data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, Spearman’s correlation, chi-square or Fischer’s exact test (with statistical significance established at p<0.05) and internal consistency using Cronbach’s alpha coefficient. Results: The largest group of workers had an adequate mental workload (48.7%) and there was a prevalence of low social support (57.6%). Mental load had a significant association with having time for leisure (p<0.001) and satisfaction with work (p=0.028). Furthermore, satisfaction with work had a significant relationship with social support (p<0.001). Furthermore, social support had negative and significant correlations with mental load in the health consequences (r=-0.377; p<0.001) and work characteristics (r=-0.192; p=0.008) dimensions. Conclusion: Workers with a high mental workload have a lower perception of social support, which may have an impact on their health, considering work characteristics. Furthermore, aspects of satisfaction and leisure activities should be promoted as a way of promoting quality of life at work.

A carga mental teve associação significativa com o ter tempo para lazer (p<0,001) e satisfação com o trabalho (p=0,028). Ainda, satisfação com o trabalho obteve relação significativa com apoio social (p<0,001). Ademais, apoio social teve correlações negativas e significativas com a carga mental nas dimensões consequências para a saúde (r=-0,377; p<0,001) e as características do trabalho (r=-0,192; p=0,008). Conclusão: os trabalhadores com alta carga mental têm menor percepção de apoio social, o que pode repercutir na saúde, considerando as características do trabalho. Ainda, os aspectos da satisfação e as atividades de lazer deveriam ser promovidos como forma de promoção de qualidade de vida no trabalho.

Introduction In Chile, occupational therapists have performed the academic role since 1963, increasing their presence in higher education institutions that have incorporated occupational therapy into their educational projects. Objective To describe the perceptions of occupational therapists and students, regarding the process of acquisition and participation in the academic role within the metropolitan region of Chile. Method Research qualitative with an exploratory-descriptive design in which occupational therapy academics and students were interviewed online, and selected in a non-probabilistic manner. 13 people participated, whose responses were analyzed in selective coding tables and categorized into 8 subcategories. Results The motivation to transmit the values of the profession and the experiences when teaching are the main factors that professionals consider maintaining their teaching role in universities. In addition, the existence of an occupational imbalance in the areas of social participation, rest, and sleep was evidenced within the routine habits of professionals. Also, there is the precariousness of work and remuneration when maintaining the teaching role. Conclusion Occupational therapist academics should facilitate the exploration of possibilities processes, motivating the development of skills and validating the achievements in the learning processes of the new generation of students, both in face-to-face and distance formats.
