“…Having a reasonable workload is an essential precondition for safe conditions in the labour ward, according to the informants' perceptions, and an extreme workload was perceived as a safety threat. Pressure connected to high workload was prominent in other studies, but not connected to patient safety (Aune, Amundsen, & Skaget Aas, ; Hansson et al, ; Hunter & Warren, ). On the other hand, studies show that high workload affect both healthcare professionals' working conditions and patient safety (Smeds Alenius, ; The National Board of Health & Welfare, ).…”

“…Women allocated to continuous support are more likely to have a spontaneous vaginal birth and less likely to have a caesarean birth or instrumental vaginal birth (Bohren et al, 2017 ). Thus, working behind a closed door prevents midwifery from becoming visible to other professions, who might feel excluded, and this affects how cooperation takes place at the clinical ward (Hansson, Lundgren, Hensing, & Carlsson, 2019 ).
