Abstract | The present study examines the impact of occupational stress on doctors' quality of life, with an emphasis on the mediating role of burnout and its implications on holistic well-being. Healthcare professionals face high levels of stress due to extensive workloads, long hours, and emotionally demanding patient interactions, leading to burnout characterized by emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced personal accomplishment. A cross-sectional survey was conducted with 150 doctors using standardized instruments, including the Occupational Stress Index, Maslach Burnout Inventory, and WHOQOL-BREF. The analysis revealed significant negative correlations between occupational stress and various quality of life dimensions: physical, psychological, social, and environmental. It indicates high level of occupational stress leads to poor quality of life . Burnout dimensions, particularly emotional exhaustion and depersonalization, fully mediated the relationship between occupational stress and quality of life, suggesting that the adverse effects of stress primarily manifest through these components. The findings call for interventions focused on reducing stress and preventing burnout to improve healthcare professionals' well-being. By addressing these issues, medical institutions can enhance not only the quality of life of their staff but also the overall quality of patient care. These insights underscore the necessity for effective support systems and stress management program within the healthcare sector . |
