Health care workers working in Covid-19 vacciantion centers due to their exponential demand experience burnout and stress. Burnout, a psychological syndrome is characterized by emotional exhaustion (EE), depersonalization (DP), and reduced personal accomplishment (PA). It can adversely affect professional and personal well being of an individual. Aim of this study was to check prevalence of burnout among health care workers, to identify personal and work-related factors, and to compare the risk factors associated with the different dimensions of burnout (EE, DP, and PA).
This cross-sectional study was carried out among 180 employees of various COVID-19 vaccination centers. Three dimensions of burnout (EE, DP, and PA) were evaluated usinge Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI), and association between burnout and other factors were assessed using logistic regression analysis with 95% confidence intervals (CI).
Prevalence rate of burnout among health care workers was 73.3%. Emotional exhaustion being the highest dimension (38.4%) followed by Depersonalization (30.8%) and personal accomplishment (33.1%). Young employees (<30 years) had significantly higher prevalence of burnout compared to old employees (82.4% vs. 52.4%, p = 0.033). Additionally, employees working more than 8 hours/day (OR = 9.98, p = 0.032) and employess with less than 6 hours of sleep/night (OR = 0.39, p = 0.042) had more likely to experience burnout.
There was an increase prevalence rate of burnout observedamong employees at COVID-19 vaccination centers. There was a significant association between personal and work-related factors such as age, working hours, and sleep patterns. Addressing these factors, particularly by promoting better work-life balance and mental health support, is essential to mitigate burnout and improve employee well-being.
由于对新冠疫苗接种中心的需求呈指数级增长，在这些中心工作的医护人员会经历职业倦怠和压力。职业倦怠是一种心理综合征，其特征为情感耗竭（EE）、去个性化（DP）和个人成就感降低（PA）。它会对个人的职业和个人幸福感产生不利影响。本研究的目的是检查医护人员中职业倦怠的患病率，确定个人和与工作相关的因素，并比较与职业倦怠不同维度（情感耗竭、去个性化和个人成就感）相关的风险因素。
本横断面研究在180名不同新冠疫苗接种中心的员工中进行。使用马氏职业倦怠量表（MBI）评估职业倦怠的三个维度（情感耗竭、去个性化和个人成就感），并使用95%置信区间（CI）的逻辑回归分析评估职业倦怠与其他因素之间的关联。
医护人员中职业倦怠的患病率为73.3%。情感耗竭是最高维度（38.4%），其次是去个性化（30.8%）和个人成就感（33.1%）。年轻员工（<30岁）的职业倦怠患病率明显高于年长员工（82.4%对52.4%，p = 0.033）。此外，每天工作超过8小时的员工（OR = 9.98，p = 0.032）和每晚睡眠少于6小时的员工（OR = 0.39，p = 0.042）更容易经历职业倦怠。
在新冠疫苗接种中心的员工中观察到职业倦怠患病率有所上升。年龄、工作时间和睡眠模式等个人和与工作相关的因素之间存在显著关联。解决这些因素，特别是通过促进更好的工作与生活平衡和心理健康支持，对于减轻职业倦怠和改善员工幸福感至关重要。
