Abstract

LIMA, Francisco Ricardo Bezerra de et al. Preliminary identification of burnout syndrome in military police officers. Motri. [online]. 2018, vol.14, n.1, pp.150-156. ISSN 1646-107X.

Military police activity (PM) is characterized by strong contact with adverse situations, making the professional very sensitive to psychological damages. The present study aimed to carry out the preliminary identification of Burnout Syndrome in military police officers who are busy in the 2nd BPCOM, in the city of Maracanaú-Ceará, and its relationship with physical exercise practice. Eighty individuals of both sexes were evaluated for active service in the corporation, aged between 21 and 46 years and with more than one year of relationship with the company. For the data collection, the preliminary Burnout questionnaire proposed by Chafic Jbeili was used, which consists of 20 questions with psychophysical characteristics in relation to the work. When evaluating the regular practice of physical exercise, it was observed that 20 (100%) women and 50 (83.3%) men practiced exercise at least twice a week. 70 (87.5%) were at least in the initial phase of Burnout. Among men, p = 0.023 was significant for those who had children. It can be concluded that although the practice of exercise was not significant to avoid Burnout Syndrome, it may serve as an element to prevent its progression.
