Workplace violence and burnout among emergency medical service workers and nurses in Germany: a cross-sectional study
This is the first comparative study to examine the association between workplace violence and the risk of burnout among nurses and EMS workers. These findings highlight the need for strengthened measures to address workplace violence, prevent burnout among employees, and support staff in coping with these challenges. Improvements in working conditions must also be considered.
