The COVID-19 pandemic had a very significant negative impact on the physical and mental health of various professional groups. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the psychosocial and health effects of the COVID-19 pandemic experienced by staff employed in social welfare institutions in Poland and Spain. The study involved 407 people, including 207 from Poland and 200 from Spain (346 women and 61 men), working in social care facilities. The research tool was the authors' questionnaire consisting of 23 closed-ended, single- or multiple-choice questions. The study has indicated that the COVID-19 pandemic had negative health and psychosocial effects on employees of social welfare facilities. In addition, it has been shown that the severity of the psychosocial and health effects of the COVID-19 pandemic differed between the countries studied. Employees from Spain statistically significantly more often declared deterioration in most of the surveyed indicators, except for mood deterioration, which was experienced more by employees from Poland than their peers from Spain.
新冠疫情对各专业群体的身心健康产生了非常重大的负面影响。因此，本研究旨在评估在波兰和西班牙社会福利机构工作的员工所经历的新冠疫情对他们的心理社会和健康的影响。该研究涉及 407 人，其中 207 人来自波兰，200 人来自西班牙（346 名女性和 61 名男性），他们在社会关怀机构工作。研究工具是作者的问卷，其中包含 23 个封闭式、单项或多项选择题。研究表明，新冠疫情对社会福利设施的员工的健康和心理社会产生了负面影响。此外，研究还表明，新冠疫情对社会福利设施员工的心理社会和健康影响的严重程度在研究国家之间存在差异。与波兰的同行相比，西班牙的员工在除情绪恶化以外的大多数调查指标中更显著地报告了恶化，而情绪恶化在波兰的员工中比在西班牙的同行中更为常见。
