There is evidence that humanitarian workers are exposed to harmful work-related situations, including various determinants of stress, that can ultimately affect their health. We studied the presence of stress in workers of a disaster response CSO that addressed medical emergencies. This was a cross-sectional descriptive study of 25 workers (95% of the total workforce at this CSO). Results: 66% were women and 33% men; average age was 28 years, 62% had completed college, and 92% were single. The prevalence of stress was 54%, marginally associated with the intellectual demands of the job (59%) and with social support services (with 75% of stressed participants reporting low levels of social support from their superiors and peers).

Es conocido que los trabajadores humanitarios están expuestos a situaciones nocivas, una amplia variedad de factores determinantes de estrés que afectan su salud, resultado de la labor que prestan. El propósito es estudiar la presencia de estrés en trabajadores de una Organización de la Sociedad Civil (OSC), dedicada a hacer Casa de Emergencia en caso de desastres. Estudio Transversal y descriptivo. Muestra convencional de 25 trabajadores, que corresponde al 95% del total. Resultados: El 66% eran mujeres y 33% hombres, la edad promedio fue de 28 años, escolaridad de licenciatura 62%, 92% eran solteros. La prevalencia de estrés fue de 54%, se relacionó de manera marginal con el ET (Exigencia Intelectual o de Trabajo); con el 59% de casos y con el AS, (Apoyo Social) pues el 75% de estresados reportó bajo apoyo social de sus superiores y pares. Conclusiones: La presencia de estrés es mucho más alta de lo esperado Incluso las OSC precisan de una estructura administrativa tradicional después de un tiempo, que permita seguir cumpliendo con su labor social.2019text (article)application/pdfhttps://dialnet.unirioja.es/servlet/oaiart?codigo=7299556(Revista) ISSN 1315-0138Salud de los Trabajadores, ISSN 1315-0138, Vol. 27, Nº. 2, 2019, pags. 159-174spaLICENCIA DE USO: Los documentos a texto completo incluidos en Dialnet son de acceso libre y propiedad de sus autores y/o editores.

Civil society organizations (CSO) complement or supplement the role of the State in responding to societal needs, often in the aftermath of a natural disaster. There is evidence that humanitarian workers are exposed to harmful work-related situations, including various determinants of stress, that can ultimately affect their health. We studied the presence of stress in workers of a disaster response CSO that addressed medical emergencies. This was a cross-sectional descriptive study of 25 workers (95% of the total workforce at this CSO). Results: 66% were women and 33% men; average age was 28 years, 62% had completed college, and 92% were single. The prevalence of stress was 54%, marginally associated with the intellectual demands of the job (59%) and with social support services (with 75% of stressed participants reporting low levels of social support from their superiors and peers). Conclusions: The presence of stress is much higher than expected. Even CSOs need a traditional administrative structure after a while, to allow them to continue fulfilling their social work.
