Health behaviours at the workplace: absenteeism, presenteeism and professional burnout

Summary/Abstract: This paper provides an overview of the theories and models that explain the interdependence of individual and environmental factors in predicting burnout and negative organisational behaviour. Contemporary researchers predominantly emphasise the role of factors at the organisational level, group processes within the work collective and the broader social context (in sociological terms, mentality). We emphasise personal (socio-demographic, dispositional and socio-cognitive) factors, primarily focusing on the ones we are able to control. The introductory part describes the burnout syndrome and the two dominant forms of negative organisational behaviours - absenteeism and presenteeism. After that, an overview of the most commonly used models for interpreting health risk behaviour is provided. The third part focuses on an overview of risk and protective factors that have been consistently confirmed to be able to successfully predict the variance of the phenomena above, as well as a summary of research conclusions on risky health behaviours in the context of professional burnout and negative organisational behaviour. The final considerations bring suggestions of possible interventions and prevention strategies aimed at protecting mental health and well-being.
