“…The above three situations experienced by nurses have a negative impact on them, affecting their physical and mental well-being as well as their performance. Musculoskeletal problems, severe sleep disturbances, depression, and anxiety, reduced work capacity, social support, and control of work, as well as increased emotional stress, quiet quitting, and work time, make up the effects of the above factors on nurses [ 71 , 72 , 73 ]. In many cases, stress, burnout, and post-traumatic stress disorder are correlated among themselves, and the presence and increased level of one feeds into the others, creating a highly stressful and particularly unhealthy work environment [ 74 , 75 , 76 , 77 ].…”

Workplace bullying affects workers’ lives, causing several mental and physical health problems and job-related issues. Therefore, a summary of the evidence on the consequences of workplace bullying on workers’ lives is essential to improve working conditions. The literature lacks systematic reviews and meta-analyses on the association between workplace bullying and job stress and the professional quality of life of nurses. Thus, we aimed to quantitatively summarize the data on the association between workplace bullying, job stress, and professional quality of life. We performed our study in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis guidelines. The review protocol was registered with PROSPERO (CRD42024495948). We searched PubMed, Medline, Scopus, Cinahl, and Web of Science up to 4 January 2024. We calculated pooled correlation coefficients and 95% confidence intervals [CI]. We identified nine studies with a total of 3730 nurses. We found a moderate positive correlation between workplace bullying and job stress (pooled correlation coefficient = 0.34, 95% CI = 0.29 to 0.39). Moreover, a small negative correlation between workplace bullying and compassion satisfaction (pooled correlation coefficient = −0.28, 95% CI = −0.41 to −0.15) was identified. Additionally, our findings suggested a moderate positive correlation between workplace bullying and job burnout (pooled correlation coefficient = 0.43, 95% CI = 0.32 to 0.53) and secondary traumatic stress (pooled correlation coefficient = 0.36, 95% CI = 0.11 to 0.57). Our findings can help nursing managers and policy-makers to draw attention to workplace bullying by implementing effective interventions, so as to reduce the bullying of nurses.

“…A recent study showed that a large percentage of nurses are quiet quitters and they choose quiet quitting more often than other health care professionals (Galanis, Katsiroumpa, Vraka, Siskou, Konstantakopoulou, Katsoulas, Moisoglou, et al, 2023a). Nurses job burnout is a positive predictor of quiet quitting, while job satisfaction is a negative one of quiet quitting (Galanis, Katsiroumpa, Vraka, Siskou, Konstantakopoulou, Katsoulas, Moisoglou, et al, 2023b). Due to the pandemic, nding a job is di cult.…”

Background Nurses experience high levels of job burnout and low levels of job satisfaction, while COVID-19 pandemic has deteriorated working conditions. Aim To compare levels of job burnout and job satisfaction among nurses and other healthcare workers after the COVID-19 pandemic. Moreover, we investigated the influence of demographic and job characteristics on job burnout and satisfaction. Methods We conducted a cross-sectional study with a convenience sample of 1760 healthcare workers. We collected data during June 2023. Our healthcare workers came from different clinical settings including hospitals, health centers, etc. We used the single item burnout measure to measure levels of burnout among our healthcare workers. Moreover, we used the “Job Satisfaction Survey” to measure levels of satisfaction in our sample. Results Nurses experienced moderate and high levels of burnout more often than other healthcare workers. In particular, 91.1% of nurses experienced high levels of burnout, while the respective percentage for the other healthcare workers was 79.9%. Nurses’ satisfaction was lower than other healthcare workers. In particular, 61.0% of nurses experienced low levels of satisfaction, while the respective percentage for the other healthcare workers was 38.8%. Multivariable analysis identified that nurses, healthcare workers with a MSc/PhD diploma, shift workers, and those who considered their workplace as understaffed had higher burnout score and lower satisfaction score. Moreover, we found that clinical experience was associated with increased burnout and decreased satisfaction. Conclusions Our results showed that nursing profession was an independent factor of job burnout and job satisfaction. Several other demographic and job characteristics affected burnout and satisfaction. Policy makers, organizations and managers should adopt appropriate interventions to improve work conditions.

“…For example, nurses during the pandemic experienced high rates of emotional and physical burnout, as well as depersonalization (Galanis et al, 2021. Additionally, during the COVID-19 pandemic, a new emergence have emerged among healthcare workers and especially nurses: the phenomenon of quiet quitting (Galanis et al, 2023c(Galanis et al, , 2023d. In this context, the phenomenon of quiet quitting has emerged, which threatens not only the well-being of workers but also the survival of countries' economies worldwide, as it leads to reduced productivity.…”

Background High levels of moral resilience among nurses are crucial to maintain or restore moral integrity in response to moral challenges during their duties. Aim To translate and validate the revised “Rushton Moral Resilience Scale” (RMRS) in Greek. Methods We collected data from 316 nurses in Greece during July 2023. We translated the RMRS in Greek applying the forward-backward method and we adapted it in the Greek context. We used three other valid tools to estimate the concurrent validity of the RMRS: “Moral Distress Thermometer” (MDT) to measure levels of moral distress; “Quiet Quitting Scale” (QQS) to measure levels of quiet quitting; single item burnout measure to measure job burnout. We performed confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) to examine the construct validity of the RMRS. Results We found that the RMRS had excellent reliability since all intraclass correlation coefficients in test-rest reliability analysis were higher than 0.993 and statistically significant (p < 0.001). Moreover, Cronbach’s coefficients alpha for the response to moral adversity scale, personal integrity scale, relational integrity scale, moral efficacy scale, and total scale were 0.652, 0.795, 0.678, 0.640, and 0.778 respectively. Our confirmatory factor analysis confirmed the four-factors structure of the scale: response to moral adversity, personal integrity, relational integrity, and moral efficacy. Concurrent validity of the Greek version of the RMRS was exceptional since we found statistically significant correlations between the RMRS and MDT, QQS, and the single item burnout measure. Conclusions The revised “Rushton Moral Resilience Scale” is a reliable and valid tool to measure moral resilience in healthcare workers.
