dc.description.abstractThe present study aims to analyse the impact of the work shift in the prevalence of Burnout syndrome, anxiety, depression and stress. This study was conducted in a metal-mechanic industry, covering a total of 175 workers of the production sector, spread over three shifts (morning, afternoon and night). The Burnout syndrome was assessed by the Shirom-Melamed Burnout Measure and the anxiety, depression and stress were measured through the Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS). Results showed that while workers experienced a low level of Burnout and stress, they were found to exhibit higher levels of anxiety and depression. Against expectations, morning shift presented higher levels of psychosocial risks. However, no significant differences were found between the three shifts. These results can be explained by several factors such the age of the workers, years of work or type of employment contract. This study emphasizes the need to implement measures to reduce workers' exposure in the morning shift.pt_PT
