“…This could imply that there is no need for special lifestyle interventions for reducing stress and corresponding hazardous threats for each of both groups of nurses. Nevertheless, our data showed and confirmed previous research in that way that both groups differed in stressors and resources associated with distress [20,37]. More efforts are needed on interactional, as well as organizational level, to raise the nurses', their supervisors', as well as the clients' awareness for respecting the individuality of nurses.…”

“…Thus, our proposed sample size was 260; in other words, 130 immigrant nurses and 130 non-immigrant nurses. Based on recent similar studies [37], we estimated response of 30% and so had to distribute at least 870 questionnaires. After mapping every homecare provider in Hamburg to its specific district, the strata were then sorted according to the proportion of people with a migration background in each district.…”

In times of demographic change, most developed countries are increasingly looking to cover the growing domestic demand for healthcare by hiring nurses from abroad. The evidence concerning the health of immigrant care workers is inconsistent since studies report that it is either better or more impaired than that of their non-immigrant counterparts. This study compared the extent of occupational psychosocial stressors and resources affecting immigrant and non-immigrant homecare nurses. The cross-sectional survey was conducted in the homecare nursing service sector in Hamburg. Psychosocial distress, depressive symptomatology, generalized anxiety, somatic symptom burdens, homecare-specific qualitative stressors, as well as resources, have been measured using a standardized questionnaire. There was no significant difference in the extent of psychosocial distress experienced by immigrant and non-immigrant homecare nurses. Somatic symptom burdens most strongly predicted nurses’ psychosocial distress, in general. For immigrant nurses, greater influence and freedom at work, as well as fixed-term employment, was related to increased levels of distress, while age, working full time, and working overtime predicted distress in non-immigrant nurses. A functioning relationship with colleagues and superiors had a declining effect on immigrant nurses’ psychosocial distress, while shift work arrangements benefitted non-immigrant nurses. Even though the extent of psychosocial distress experienced by immigrant and non-immigrant nurses did not significantly differ, the nurse’s individual explanatory model of psychosocial health should be considered in every occupational and political context.

Objective: to identify, in international scientific production, the main psychosocial factors in nursing work, found through the Copenhagen Psychosocial Questionnaire (COPSOQ) application. Methods: a systematic review study of psychosocial factors at work among nursing professionals, who used COPSOQ in the assessment of work environments. Results: fifteen articles were identified, which highlighted as main psychosocial dimensions of nursing work demands, work organization, social relationships and leadership, work-home interface, workplace health and well-being and offensive behaviors. Conclusion: the high demands for cognitive, emotional work and work pace were identified in the nursing routine. Management support had a positive impact. Physical and psychological violence and shift work interfere in family life, aggravating the fatigue of these professionals. Interventions for reducing work stress presuppose the identification of psychosocial factors involved in nursing work.

“…More specifically, data on the relationship between work and psychological stress in PrAs are lacking. While psychosocial assessment studies of health personnel in secondary care have been performed [3][4][5][6], only few have addressed this issue in PrAs in German primary care [1,7,8]. Therefore, it is important to further investigate PrAs' perceived level of psychological stress, as psychological strain may not only threaten PrAs' health with potentially tremendous economic costs, but may also impair high-quality patient care [9].…”

Introduction Practice assistants represent a highly relevant occupational group in Germany and one of the most popular training professions in Germany. Despite this, most research in the health care sector has focused on secondary care settings, but has not addressed practice assistants in primary care. Knowledge about practice assistants' workplace-related stressors and resources is particularly scarce. This cross-sectional study addresses the mental workload of practice assistants working in primary care practices. Methods Practice assistants from a network of 185 German primary care practices were invited to participate in this cross-sectional study. The standardized 'Short Questionnaire for Workplace Analysis' (German: Kurzfragebogen zur Arbeitsanalyse) was used to assess practice assistants´mental workload. It addresses eleven workplace factors in 26 items: versatility, completeness of task, scope of action, social support, cooperation, qualitative work demands, quantitative work demands, work disruptions, workplace environment, information and participation, and benefits. Sociodemographic and work characteristics were also obtained. A descriptive analysis was performed for sociodemographic data and "Short Questionnaire for Workplace Analysis" factors. The one-sided t-test and Cohen´s d were calculated for a comparison with data from 23 professional groups (n = 8,121). Results A total of 550 practice assistants from 130 practices participated. The majority of practice assistants was female (99.3%) and worked full-time (66.5%) in group practices (50.6%).
