The objective of this study is to assess the prevalence of the burnout syndrome in a group of hospital workers in the city of Santiago de Chile and the possible association between those psychosocial factors and the syndrome.Design: Transversal type of study. Sample: random, with cases selected by convenience (n = 416).Instruments: Psychic Effects Burnout Scale (EPB), Goldberg’s General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-28), ISTAS 21 Questionnaire for the Evaluation of Psychosocial Risks in the Workplace.Method: k-media conglomerates and a logistic regression model were used to estimate Burnout prevalence.Results: prevalence of workers with burnout was 25% and it was significantly related to higher levels of psychological demand, plus an interaction between social support and task control.Conclusions: Burnout syndrome is associated to the three psychosocial factors of the demand-control-support model. Antecedentes: la exposición a factores psicosociales en el trabajo, como la demanda o exigencias psicológicas, el control sobre las tareas y el apoyo social en el ambiente laboral guardan relación con el estrés y su repercusión en la salud mental. El propósito de este trabajo ha sido estimar la prevalencia de dicho síndrome en un grupo de trabajadores de un hospital de la ciudad de Santiago (Chile) y analizar la posible asociación entre los factores psicosociales nombrados y el Síndrome de Burnout. Diseño: de tipo transversal. Muestra: de tipo no probabilística, donde los casos fueron seleccionados por conveniencia (n = 416) Instrumentos : Escala de Efectos Psíquicos de Burnout (EPB), Cuestionario de Salud General de Goldberg (GHQ-28) y Cuestionario para la evaluación de riesgos psicosociales en el trabajo ISTAS 21. Métodos: se calculó la prevalencia de Burnout a partir del método de conglomerados k-medias y se construyó un modelo de regresión logística. Resultados: la prevalencia de trabajadores con Burnout fue del 25% y se encontró una asociación significativa con mayores niveles de exigencias psicológicas, así como con una interacción entre apoyo social y control en las tareas. Conclusiones: el síndrome de Burnout está asociado a los tres factores psicosociales del modelo demanda-control-apoyo social. Escuela de Salud Pública y Ambiente. Fac. Cs.
