Journal Title: International Journal Of Medical Science And Clinical Research Studies - Year 2021, Vol 1, Issue 05
Abstract
The global COVID-19 pandemic has significantly affected people's lives, created many challenges and impacted many areas, including health, work, education, the economy and social welfare. The restrictive measures imposed to control and deal with the pandemic were many and at many different levels. Because of these measures, the majority of people were forced to stay indoors, isolated, without their daily activities, with very specific movements and with a lot of free time. On the other hand, there was a part of the population that continued to work (such as doctors, nurses, and workers in the shops of essential goods) and even in very difficult conditions. The employees in the supermarkets in particular faced a significant difficulty, since on the one hand the opening hours of the supermarkets were extended and on the other hand they were in daily contact with many different people, so they also had to manage their fear of being exposed to the virus. The present study examines the burnout and depression of workers in grocery stores during the pandemic. Specifically, the stores in which the survey was conducted were two large supermarkets of the SKLAVENITIS chain in the area of Elefsina and Psychiko in the Prefecture of Attica and it appeared that the employees showed moderate emotional exhaustion during the COVID-19 pandemic.
