Resumo: | We seek to identify international studies that describe the causes of mental illness in university workers, focusing on work characteristics that, regardless of culture, can affect workers' mental health. To achieve the proposed objectives, we carried out a literature review. Searches were carried out in two main databases: Scopus and Web of Science. The search aimed to compose a heterogeneous sample with studies from several countries and continents. We identified some characteristics that tend to influence the suffering and mental illness of workers in different parts of the world. Lack of control and intensification of work, as well as affectivity and participation in management seem to have this property. It is concluded that, considering that some characteristics of work affect workers regardless of the culture in which they are inserted, material development by itself cannot resolve this issue, otherwise economically more advanced countries would no longer suffer from diseases work-related mental health problems. Material development can improve working conditions only when it is mediated by ethics, aiming at social well-being, since economic development does not mean immediate positive repercussions in terms of mental health for workers. |

Para alcançar os objetivos propostos, realizamos uma revisão de literatura. Foram feitas pesquisas em duas bases de dados principais: Scopus e Web of Science. A busca teve como objetivo compor uma amostra heterogênea contemplando estudos de vários países e continentes. Identificamos algumas características que tendem a influenciar no sofrimento e adoecimento mental dos trabalhadores em diferentes lugares do mundo, tais como falta de controle e intensificação do trabalho, assim como afetividade e participação na gestão parecem ter essa propriedade. Conclui-se que, considerando que algumas características do trabalho afetam o trabalhador independentemente da cultura em que esteja inserido, o desenvolvimento material por si só não consegue resolver essa questão, já que sendo assim, os países economicamente mais avançados já não sofreriam com as doenças mentais relacionadas ao trabalho. Assim, o desenvolvimento material pode melhorar as condições de trabalho somente quando é mediado pela ética, visando bem-estar social já que o desenvolvimento econômico não significa imediata repercussão positiva em termos de saúde mental para os trabalhadores.Universidade Federal de Viçosa - UFV2021-10-15info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufv.br/reves/article/view/1330410.18540/revesvl4iss4pp13304-01-13eREVES - Revista Relações Sociais; Vol. 4 No. 4 (2021); 13304-01-13eREVES - Revista Relações Sociais; Vol. 4 Núm. 4 (2021); 13304-01-13eREVES - Revista Relações Sociais; v. 4 n. 4 (2021); 13304-01-13e2595-4490reponame:REVES - Revista Relações Sociaisinstname:Universidade Federal de Viçosa (UFV)instacron:UFVporhttps://periodicos.ufv.br/reves/article/view/13304/6930Copyright (c) 2021 REVES - Revista Relações Sociaishttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMaffioletti, Gabriella Suzana LorenzzonTeixeira, Edival Sebastião2021-11-29T17:19:04Zoai:ojs.periodicos.ufv.br:article/13304Revistahttps://periodicos.ufv.br/reves/PUBhttps://periodicos.ufv.br/reves/oaireves.journal@ufv.br||2595-44902595-4490opendoar:2021-11-29T17:19:04REVES - Revista Relações Sociais - Universidade Federal de Viçosa (UFV)false |
