Abstract

In recent years, the concept of psychosocial risks has assumed enormous importance in working life. Indeed, PSR at work has become almost synonymous with work life and more specifically work stress, and it is widely accepted that work experiences can have a major impact on the psychological health of employees. Psychological risks are the human pressures that arise as a result of implementing an organization's strategy, and take different forms such as anxiety, pressure, violence, mental load and poor communication, musculoskeletal disorders and other pressures that are transmitted differently among employees depending on their position in the organization. Thus, mental health is an integral part of health and a state of happiness. In this state, a person can achieve self-actualization, overcome the normal pressures of life, engage in productive work and contribute to community life. Its degree is determined by social, psychological and biological factors. In the workplace, it is associated with psychosocial risk (PSR), which can cause a variety of discomforts and negative emotions about work. The assessment of PSR in the workplace is necessary, their identification allows to take preventive measures to have an objective impact on absenteeism, performance, productivity and health of workers and organizations In this sense, the objective of this work is to evaluate the prevalence of work-related psychological organizational constraints in the group of practicing teachers based on the Karasek model.
