Factores psicosociales protectores y estrategias de afrontamiento: Una revisión de alcance

Abstract

It is imperative that those responsible for OSH programs be clear that the well-being of employees not only derives from the prevention of risks or the absence of pathologies, but also from the promotion of psychosocial skills (individual, social and organizational), that is, of the strengthening of the resources that the company provides to face the demands. Therefore, this scope review seeks to collect coping strategies with an emphasis on taking advantage of protective psychosocial factors that allow managing available organizational resources. The review was based on the methodological guidelines of Arksey and O'Malley. Fifteen studies were analyzed that indicate the coping styles of stressful work conditions, which could help increase emotional wellbeing, job satisfaction and at the same time balance psychosocial risk factors. The study allows us to conclude that working on protective factors generates a positive effect that reduces work stress.
