ABSTRACT

Objectives: Identify the frequency and intensity of the perception of adverse professional consequences and their association with burnout syndrome and occupational variables. Methods: Cross-sectional sample of 11,530 healthcare professionals resident in Spain and Latin America. The association of negative work-related consequences on burnout, as measured by the MBI and workrelated variables was analysed by multiple logistic regression. Results: The emotional exhaustion was the first variable associated with absenteeism, with intention of giving up profession, personal deterioration, and family deterioration. Depersonalization was most associated with the perception of having made mistakes. Conclusions: The findings indicate a considerable prevalence of adverse work-related consequences.

4. Discussion

The present study of 11,530 Spanish-speaking healthcare professionals from Spain and Latin America reveals a considerable prevalence of adverse professional consequences associated especially with the different components of the burnout syndrome, particularly in terms of personal and family deterioration, and the intention of giving up the profession. The results are in broad agreement with the hypotheses that were formulated, although no conclusion can be reached with regards the optimism variable, which was only found to have a protecting influence in the perception of committing mistakes and family deterioration in certain countries. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to analyse adverse working consequences in such a large sample of Spanish-speaking healthcare workers.
