Psychosocial risk and engagement in early childhood professionals: insights from a regional portuguese study
| Resumo: | The European Agency for Safety and Health at Work recognizes psychosocial risks in the workplace as a major threat to workers' health and safety. Work engagement has emerged as a strong predictor of performance and productivity. Therefore, it is crucial to investigate these concepts among professionals from the Local Early Intervention Teams (LEI) of the National Early Childhood Intervention System (SNIPI) within the Lisbon and Tagus Valley Regional Subcommittee (SCRLVT), who are often exposed to high work demands. This study aimed to identify psychosocial risks and engagement levels, analyze variations according to sociodemographic and professional characteristics, examine differences across engagement dimensions, and explore the relationship between psychosocial risks and engagement. |
