Workers removed for mental and behavioral disorders: the return to the workplace and its impact on the personal and working life of some bank employees
Main Article Content
Abstract
The survey was conducted in a State Bank located in a southeastern state that adopted technologies that led to changes in positions and functions, which required employees to achieve goals and objectives derived from market pressures. The implemented changes began to produce cases of depression and stress amongst workers, who had to be removed from their activities. The survey's goal was to study how the everyday life of the bank's employees had changed following medical leave due to mental and behavioral disorders, evaluating both personal and professional aspects. The theoretical discussion begins with the transformation of the labor market and goes on to analyze mental and behavioral disorders resulting from the new organizational context. References are made to authors who dealt with both of the disorders that are most referred to in the study, i.e., stress and depression, in addition to the Theory of Cognitive Evaluation the Theory of Organizational Justice. We used a qualitative approach, through the technique of content analysis for the treatment of the data that were collected through the self-reporting of employees affected by the disorders. The results show the continued presence of stressors in the workplace, the difficulties of interpersonal relationships and lack of a reintegration program for workers in the workplace.
