“…Previous studies have also reported burnout as a serious problem in the COVID‐19 pandemic among non‐HCWs, such as teachers, 26 security forces, 27 and managers. Although HCWs are often reported to have a higher psychological burden than non‐HCWs, 28 , 29 the number of patients with COVD‐19 in each region, the timing of the survey, and the type of the questionnaire and cut‐off point of the scale differ among studies. Therefore, it should be noted that the prevalence of burnout in this study cannot be directly compared with other studies.…”

Objectives To determine the prevalence of burnout according to job category after the first wave of COVID‐19 in Japan and to explore its association with certain factors. Methods An online cross‐sectional survey of health care workers (HCWs) from June 15 to July 6, 2020, was conducted at a tertiary hospital in Tokyo, Japan. Demographic characteristics, results of the Japanese version of the Maslach Burnout Inventory‐General Survey, types of anxiety and stress, changes in life and work after the peak of the pandemic, and types of support aimed at reducing the physical or mental burden, were determined. Results Of 672 HCWs, 149 (22.6%) met the overall burnout criteria. Burnout was more prevalent in women (OR, 3.11; 95% CI, 1.45‐6.67, P = .003), anxiety due to unfamiliarity with personal protective equipment (PPE) (OR, 1.98; 95% CI, 1.20‐3.27, P = .007), and decreased sleep duration (OR, 1.96; 95% CI, 1.20‐3.20, P = .008). Conversely, participants who felt that the delivery of COVID‐19‐related information (OR, .608; 95% CI, .371‐.996, P = .048) and PPE education opportunities (OR, .484; 95% CI, .236‐.993, P = .048) and messages of encouragement at the workplace (OR, .584; 95% CI, .352‐.969; p = .037) was helpful experienced less burnout. Conclusions There is a need to focus on the above factors to maintain the mental health of HCWs. The delivery of COVID‐19‐related information and educational interventions for PPE and messages of encouragement at the workplace may be needed to reduce the mental burden.

“…COVID-19 pandemic has caused considerable stress endangering the mental health and well-being of healthcare staffs. Studies showed that COVID-19 stress can induce mild to severe levels of psychosocial and mental health problems, such as depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, and loneliness (Arslan, 2020;Ceri & Cicek, 2021), burnout among health care professionals (Yıldırım & Solmaz, 2020), physical isolation and loneliness (Tanhan et al, 2020), and adjustment problems . However, evidence is limited regarding the impact of current pandemic on healthcare staff burnout derived from coronavirus stress, particularly underlying mechanism of both variables.…”

“…7 There is evidence that those in lower income brackets have been more negatively affected, 8 and that nurses may be worse affected than those in other roles. 9 In terms of trajectory, wellbeing appears to have worsened during the early stages of the pandemic, with small improvements through the following months. 8 Other factors associated with poor mental health and well-being are lack of access to personal protective equipment (PPE) and lack of supportive environments.…”

IntroductionThe COVID-19 pandemic has had profound effects on the working lives of healthcare workers (HCWs), but the extent to which their well-being and mental health have been affected remains unclear. This longitudinal cohort study aims to recruit a cohort of National Health Service (NHS) HCWs, conducting surveys at regular intervals to provide evidence about the prevalence of symptoms of mental disorders, and investigate associated factors such as occupational contexts and support interventions available.Methods and analysisAll staff, students and volunteers working in the 18 participating NHS Trusts in England will be sent emails inviting them to complete a survey at baseline, with email invitations for the follow-up surveys sent 6 months and 12 months later. Opening in late April 2020, the baseline survey collects data on demographics, occupational/organisational factors, experiences of COVID-19, validated measures of symptoms of poor mental health (eg, depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder), and constructs such as resilience and moral injury. These surveys will be complemented by in-depth psychiatric interviews with a sample of HCWs. Qualitative interviews will also be conducted, to gain deeper understanding of the support programmes used or desired by staff, and facilitators and barriers to accessing such programmes.Ethics and disseminationEthical approval for the study was granted by the Health Research Authority (reference: 20/HRA/210, IRAS: 282686) and local Trust Research and Development approval. Cohort data are collected via Qualtrics online survey software, pseudonymised and held on secure university servers. Participants are aware that they can withdraw from the study at any time, and there is signposting to support services if participants feel they need it. Only those consenting to be contacted about further research will be invited to participate in further components. Findings will be rapidly shared with NHS Trusts, and via academic publications in due course.
