BORRALHA, Sérgio; JESUS, Saul Neves de    PINTO, Patrícia. Hotel employees: A systematic literature review. []. , 12, 1, pp.120-126. ISSN 2182-8458.  https://doi.org/10.18089/tms.2016.12112.

^len^aWith the increase of studies on hospitality professionals over the years, it is essential to perform a review on those works. This review was conducted through the databases Web of Knowledge, Web of Science (Social Sciences Index Expanded, Social Sciences Citation Index, Medline), and Science Direct. We searched for articles published between 2000 and 2014, crossing the keywords “hospitality”, “tourism”, and “hotel” with the keywords “professionals”, “employees”, and “workers”. Our aim was to identify the most studied variables on hospitality employees. The search process resulted on 3700 initial references, being selected 242. We verified that work satisfaction was studied in 51 articles and stress, burnout, and mental exhaustion in 31. For that reason, this review aggregates and analyses these results. This study has implications for the understanding of the roll of these variables in hospitality and tourism economic profitability, as well as in human resources management policies and individual well-being.^lpt^aCom o aumento dos estudos realizados com profissionais de hotelaria nos últimos anos, torna-se importante fazer uma revisão desses trabalhos. Esta revisão foi realizada com recurso às bases de dados Web of Knowledge, Web of Science (Social Sciences Index Expanded, Social Sciences Citation Index, Medline) e Science Direct. Pesquisámos artigos publicados entre 2000 e 2014, cruzando as palavras-chave “hospitalidade”, “turismo” e “hotel” com as palavras-chave “profissionais”, “empregados” e “trabalhadores”. Objetivámos, desta forma, identificar as variáveis mais estudadas nos profissionais de hotelaria. Da pesquisa resultaram 3700 referências iniciais, tendo sido selecionadas 242. Verificou-se que a satisfação no trabalho foi analisada em 51 estudos e o stresse, burnout e exaustão emocional em 31, pelo que esta revisão incorpora e analisa estes resultados. Este estudo possui implicações para a análise do papel destas variáveis na rentabilidade económica da hotelaria e do turismo, na gestão de recursos humanos e no bem-estar dos colaboradores.
