“…Perceptions regarding workload as a stressor can include insufficient staff and/or too many non-nursing tasks as sources of workplace stress (Karadzinska Bislimovska et al, 2014 ). Evidence that non-nursing tasks likely account for some of the participants’ perceptions of workload as a stressor comes from the previously mentioned study that observed about 60% of Bangladeshi RNs time working within government systems was taken up with direct patient care (Joarder et al, 2021 ; Rony, 2021 ). The low nurse-to-patient ratio [2 nurses per 10,000 population] (World Health Organization, 2020 ) in Bangladesh may also have influenced perceptions of workload as a stressor.…”

Background: Nurses report high levels of workplace stress, which has been linked to an increased risk for experiencing depressive symptoms.Nurses’ workplace stress is also linked to increased absenteeism and decreased job satisfaction. Objectives: The objectives of this study were to examine: (1) the incidence of depressive symptoms among hospital-based registered nurses in Bangladesh; (2) common sources of workplace stress and their relationships to individual characteristics and depressive symptom scores; and (3) the potential mediating roles of coping strategies in the relationship between workplace stress and depressive symptoms. Methods: A cross-sectional study design involved three hundred and fifty-two registered nurses. Data were collected using a demographic questionnaire and three standardized tools measuring sources of nurses’ workplace stress, coping strategies, and depressive symptoms. Results: More than half of the participants scored ≥ 16 on the CES-D, which was associated with a major depression episode. Total NSS scores had a small but significant influence on scores on the depression scale. Coping strategies had no mediated effect on the relationship between workplace stress and scores on the depression scale. Low-reliability coefficients for subscales of two of the standardized tools highlight the challenge for researchers in developing countries to address contextual differences that may influence the meanings attached to individual items. Conclusion: Findings suggest that the mental health of registered nurses in Bangladesh requires immediate attention in part by attending to workplace stressors. Further research should focus on a deeper understanding of Bangladeshi registered nurses’ work experiences and the unique contribution that workplace stressors have on their physical and mental health.

Nursing is an important part of the health sector. The quality of service largely depends on the nurses. Nurses are at the center of the healthcare setting. In order to provide high-quality services, nurses need to work independently and create an environment where nurses can express their opinions, engage in policymaking and have a unique work environment. Nurses need to be guaranteed rights, dignity, and quality opportunities. However, nurses have been facing a number of factors over the past two decades that are hampering the quality of service in the health sector. If these challenges cannot be reduced from Bangladesh, there will be a major health crisis over the country.
