“…A recent study of burnout revealed that, in response to the open ended question, "Is there anything else you would like to share with AAN (American Academy of Neurology) regarding burnout and wellbeing?" women neurologists more commonly wrote about depression and suicidal ideation than did men neurologists [22].…”

Gender-Based Differences in Burnout: Issues Faced by Women Physicians

Individual, institutional, and societal risk factors for the development of burnout can diff er for women and men physicians. While some studies on physician burnout report an increased prevalence among women, this fi nding may be due to actual diff erences in prevalence, the assessment tools used, or diff erences between/among the genders in how burnout manifests. In the following discussion paper, we review the prevalence of burnout in women physicians and contributing factors to burnout that are specifi c for women physicians. Understanding, preventing, and mitigating burnout among all physicians is critical, but such actions are particularly important for the retention of women physicians, given the increasing numbers of women in medicine and in light of the predicted exacerbation of physician shortages.

“…The recent Medscape National Physician Burnout, Depression and Suicide Report (2019) on over 15,000 doctors showed that burnout was self-reported by 50% of women and 38% of men physicians. In the scientific literature, studies reporting either no significant differences between the sexes [60,61] as well as indications that female doctors are more sensitive to burnout [62][63][64] are also available. Among the studies included in this review results also varied.…”

Due to the nature of their work, physicians are exposed to chronic stress. This may potentially lead to the widespread occurrence of occupational burnout syndrome (BS). The aim of this systematic review study was to summarize available published data concerning the prevalence of BS in Polish doctors. The literature search was performed using the following databases: PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) and Google Scholar. The last search was performed on September 27th, 2019. Only articles in English or Polish on graduated doctors practicing in Poland were taken into account. All types of original research were considered eligible. However, review articles, book chapters, case reports, case series, conference papers, study protocols and articles in languages other than English and Polish were excluded. There were no restrictions on age, seniority or specialty of study participants. The literature search revealed a total of 21 studies that met the inclusion criteria. The results of individual studies were very diverse, which makes it difficult to draw specific conclusions. However, the problem of burnout among Polish doctors is valid and worth special attention from society, health policy leaders, and doctors themselves. High-quality research is essential to for a better understanding of this topic.

“…For public health workers, we need to consider difference of population characteristics and occupational environment at three tiers to analyse whether these factors will affect their job burnout. In terms of individual factors, previous studies confirmed that gender, age, educational background and years of employment can influence the burnout levels (Cañadas‐De La Fuente et al, ; LaFaver et al, ; WangLv, Qian, & Zhang, ). The importance of these factors to public health workers' burnout is different.…”

This study aimed to reveal burnout levels and its potential influencing factors among three-tiered public health workers in China. A total of 1,328 public health workers from cities, counties and townships in Henan and Hubei provinces participated.Cumulative logistic regressions were used to determine job burnout predictors.Township workers (β = 0.276, p = .046) showed higher levels of emotional exhaustion (EE) than city workers. Municipal workers showed higher levels of depersonalisation (DP) (β = −0.439, p = .004) and lack of personal accomplishment (LPA) (β = −0.343, p = .005) than township workers. Compared with those who had better results, township workers with average levels of interpersonal relationships (β = 0.703, p = .014) exhibited higher EE degrees. Municipal (β = 1.050, p < .001) and county (β = 1.359, p < .001) workers with moderate training satisfaction had higher levels of burnout than those with a high degree of training satisfaction. Municipal (β = 3.933, p < .001) and county (β = 1.218, p = .018) workers earning 2,000 RMB and below every month were more likely to have higher burnout levels than those earning 4,001 RMB and above. Township respondents exhibited high EE levels, given the low-level education of their services' target audience. Similarly affected by interpersonal relationships, township workers require interpersonal and emotional intervention programmes. City respondents showed a high level of DP and LPA, which was attributed to considerable differences between public health workers and medical workers in cities.Hence, apart from narrowing the reward gap between clinicians and public health workers, improving public health workers' social cognition and status by various channels was found necessary. The burnout of municipal and county respondents were influenced by income and training. Improving the role of income as incentive and reforming trainings programmes would be necessary.
