Social workers (SWs) provide emotional and practical support to vulnerable service users who are likely to suffer from emotional trauma and mental health conditions. Stress and burnout levels are reported to be high among SWs, however, little is known about their relationships with different characteristics. The current article utilises unique and large dataset (n = 3786) on SWs working in adults and children's services to examine factors associated with burnout. Employing job-demand/resources model and structural equations modelling, we highlight the varying significant impact of work-engagement, administrative support and work experience as moderating factors to burnout across adult and children service specialism in this sample.
社会工作者为可能遭受情感创伤和心理健康问题的弱势服务对象提供情感和实际支持。据报道，社会工作者的压力和倦怠程度很高，然而，对于他们与不同特征之间的关系却知之甚少。本文利用关于从事成人和儿童服务工作的社会工作者的独特且庞大的数据集（n = 3786）来研究与倦怠相关的因素。采用工作需求/资源模型和结构方程模型，我们强调了工作投入、行政支持和工作经验作为调节因素对本样本中成人和儿童服务专业倦怠的不同显著影响。
