Abstract
The purpose of the research was to establish the relationship patterns of acute and chronic (professional burnout, PV) fatigue of doctors with the workload that was characterized by a combination of the length of the working week and the intensity of the labor process. The study involved 325 women doctors. A special questionnaire was used to identify the symptoms of acute and chronic fatigue, duration and intensity of work, to assess the professional and non-professional causes of usual fatigue at work. It was found that the average workload of doctors was 44.9 hours per week, taking into account the physiological intensity of labor — 50.3 normalized hours (NH). The frequency of most of the symptoms of PV increases by 2–3 times at NH > 58 hours, compared with the load at NH < 42 hours. In case NH > 47 hours on a daily fatigue doctors are largely influenced by the factors: work in evening and night shifts; the imbalance of effort and reward; the uncertainty of the obligations; extra-working load; lack of free time. The daily fatigue of doctors is also significantly affected by their individual characteristics — health and anxiety type of behavior.
