Il contributo illustra i risultati di una ricerca sul ruolo che la giustizia organizzativa e il supporto sociale - da parte di colleghi e superiori - hanno in ambito lavorativo sull’insorgere del burnout. Obiettivo è evidenziare gli effetti di queste dimensioni organizzative sull’insorgere della sindrome e, nel dettaglio, identificare gli eventuali effetti di moderazione del supporto sociale sulla relazione tra giustizia organizzativa e burnout. Lo studio è stato condotto nell’Azienda Sanitaria Ospedaliera più grande del Piemonte e ha coinvolto 503 operatori che lavorano in tre reparti molto diversi dal punto di vista delle caratteristiche dei pazienti e dell’intensità del sistema di cure (ICU e non-ICU): medicina d’urgenza, medicina interna e radiodiagnostica. I risultati hanno messo in luce sia la presenza di effetti diretti della giustizia e del supporto sociale sul burnout, sia effetti di moderazione del supporto sociale sulla relazione tra giustizia e dimensioni del burnout, diversificati sulla base dei reparti coinvolti nell’indagine. .;
