The health professionals who participate directly in the production of health services and the technical and support services professionals who support the production of services are in intensive contact with patients, patients' relatives and consultants every day. These interactions also lead to an increase in the likelihood of health professionals to face psychosocial risks. Psychosocial risks include the contents of the work, the organization and management of the work and the social contexts of the work. Therefore, they can produce serious consequences in terms of health and well-being of health professionals. The European Agency for Occupational Health and Safety has ranked the main psychosocial risks that health professionals may face in the form of work stress, exhaust syndrome, harassment/trafficking, violence, working hours and drug addiction. The purpose of this article is to provide brief information about the basic psychosocial risks and their possible consequences for both health workers and patients.
