Perceptions, attitudes, and experiences of GLP-1 receptor agonists for weight management in the United Kingdom: a cross-sectional survey study.

Workplace violence constitutes an increasingly significant global problem, with important consequences for the physical and mental health of workers, as well as for the overall functioning of organizations []. It manifests in multiple forms—ranging from physical assaults to psychological harassment, workplace bullying, threats, and even social exclusion—and may originate from both internal sources (colleagues, supervisors) and external ones (users or patients) []. Various international organizations, such as the International Labour Organization (ILO), have emphasized the need to address this phenomenon as a priority in occupational health and safety []. Healthcare professionals are among the occupational groups most frequently exposed to violence perpetrated by third parties. Evidence indicates that approximately 20% of these workers experience violent incidents each year at the global level []. This high vulnerability is primarily related to the complex interactions that occur with patients and their families. In many cases, the frustration of the latter—arising from factors such as long wait times, refusal of certain requests, or unfavorable medical news—may trigger aggressive behaviors toward healthcare personnel []. In parallel, the concept of psychosocial risks has gained increasing relevance in recent decades, serving as a construct that encompasses all organizational, social, and environmental factors that impact the psychological and emotional well-being of workers. These include high job demands, limited autonomy, role ambiguity, organizational justice, job instability, and lack of support from supervisors or colleagues []. Scientific literature has demonstrated that prolonged exposure to these risks not only increases the incidence of mental health disorders such as burnout but can also contribute to the development of conflictive and dysfunctional workplace environments [, , ].
