    Analysis of Workplace Related Stress among the Nurses

    Occupational stress is caused by various factors and situations within a healthcare setting that requires the engagement of the available personnel even when such individuals do not have the appropriate expertise to handle such issues, which compromise their expectations. The management in a healthcare facility might delegate duties to the nursing staff without considering the level of workload is capable of handling. If the nursing staff is overburdened the abilities to manage emotional distress is reduced. Besides, nurses might witness various events, which have emotional effects on their ability to dispense their duties effectively. For instance, a patient might die in the hands of the nurse and without due consideration, the management might delegate more duties to such nurses, which creates a feeling of injustice and uncertainties about their work expectations. This affects not only their emotional aspect but also affects their ability to carry out their duties as required. Besides, it can affect teamwork and lead to poor work relationships. This might compromise the overall goal of creating a safety culture with a healthcare facility and affect the overall wellness of the nursing staff. The purpose of this paper is to examine and analyze four different research articles that expounds on the issue by evaluating their methodologies suggested controlling the issue.
