À propos de cet audio
Examining the mental health and well-being of bus drivers and other public transport workers, highlighting the significant stressors inherent in their profession. Studies discuss factors like long hours, unpredictable shifts, exposure to violence and aggression from passengers, and inadequate support from management as contributors to high rates of anxiety, depression, and fatigue. Several articles emphasize the importance of employer support, union initiatives, and individual coping mechanisms like relaxation techniques and peer support programs in mitigating these negative impacts. The research further indicates that these challenges were exacerbated during the COVID-19 pandemic, leading to increased fear and economic strain for many transport workers.
