Abstract:

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate the causes of seafarer burnout and the complex combination of causes that inspire burnout, and to provide a theoretical basis for mitigating seafarer burnout. Methods: This study used questionnaire method to survey 451 seafarer members. Then, the questionnaire data were statistically analyzed using SPSS26.0 software, and the job burnout influencing factors were explored by structural equation modeling using AMOS24.0. Third, a qualitative comparative analysis is used to explore the combination of factors that stimulate job burnout. Methods: The results of structural equation modeling showed that seafarer members' subjective well-being, general self-efficacy, and psychological resilience genera are all significantly negatively related to job burnout. Job demands are significantly negatively related to job burnout, job control negatively affects the decreased personal accomplishment dimension, and social support negatively affects the depersonalization and emotional exhaustion dimensions. Then, this study conducted a fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis based on these six burnout influencing factors, and the results show that there are no necessary conditions leading to job burnout among the six antecedent variables and that there existed four combinations of conditions with high explanatory power for the formation of burnou. Finally, based on the findings of the study to alleviate seafarer burnout to provide management recommendations.

Abstract:

In business life, employees sacrifice many things from their social lives in return for the time they spend at work, and in return, they have expectations to be satisfied in terms of business life. The sacrifices and expectations of employees in each sector are different from each other. In this study, the effects of the working conditions of seafarers in the maritime sector, which is a sector where employees give almost all their attention and time to their work and are easily affected by the negativities that occur, are examined. As a result of the seafarers being affected by the sea life, when the work desire and motivation losses are at the highest level, the thought of leaving the job manifests itself and it can reach dimensions that will cause occupational accidents due to reasons such as carelessness and wrong or incomplete work caused by the work of the seafarer. In this study, a group of seafarers consisting of 8 "captains", 8 "chief engineers", 76 "seamen" and 64 "oilers", who have worked on ships for a long time, experienced the difficulties arising from the ship, stayed away from family and social life, and had to work with more difficult conditions compared to the current ship conditions, and a group of seafarers who are younger than the other group, many of whom have their first work experience, in total. In the study, forms consisting of 4 sections were distributed using the survey method and 5-point Likert scaling as research management. The sociodemographic Information Form, Maslach Burnout Scale, Organizational Stress Scale, and Beck Depression Inventory were used to obtain demographic information of the participating seafarers. The data were interpreted using the SPSS statistical program. The statistical methods used were normal distributions with the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, reliability with the Cronbach Alpha test, and parametric and non-parametric tests applied to analyze other data. As a result of the study, it was revealed that marital status and having children did not increase the stress level of seafarers, and age and working time on board had an effect on burnout levels.

Abstract:

The primary objective of this study is to investigate the extent to which depression, stress, anxiety, and burnout in Indian seafarers. The study collected data from 109 Indian seafarers through Google Forms from March 2023 to April 2023. Descriptive statistics and inferential statistics were used to summarize the data based on selected demographic factors. The results showed that Indian seafarers suffered from mild depression (Mean =13.54) Seafarers also suffer from moderate levels of anxiety (Mean= 10.81). The levels of stress are found to be of normal level (Mean=13.28). The average scores for the components of burnout, namely Disengagement, and Exhaustion, among seafarers are 20.03 (SD= 3.673) and 20.43 (SD= 4.051) respectively. These findings suggest that seafarers exhibit moderate levels of burnout. Also, the correlational analysis shows a positive moderate correlation between total scores of depression, anxiety, stress, and components of Burnout with a value of 0.392 at a 1 % level of significance. The study highlights the need for mental health interventions and support services for seafarers to prevent and manage mental health issues in this population.

Abstract:

Burnout syndrome among seafarers is becoming an increasingly prevalent issue due to long working shifts, isolation, heavy workloads, and other stressors. Seafarers are frequently exposed to adverse weather conditions, physically demanding tasks, and prolonged periods at sea, all of which further contribute to the development of the burnout syndrome. Moreover, the COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated the situation by introducing travel restrictions, extended contracts, and limited access to medical and psychological support. The contribution of this review paper lies in presenting, in the native language, a comprehensive overview of the definition and significance of professional burnout among seafarers, a topic of growing relevance in the modern age. The aim of this paper is to explore the causes of burnout among seafarers, its effects on their mental and physical health, and preventive strategies that could improve their well-being and work performance. The literature used includes the latest international studies and sources available through relevant academic databases, along with an analysis of empirical research involving seafarers who have faced this challenge.

Abstract:

Purpose: To explore the relationship between job burnout in seafarers and subjective well-being and general self-efficacy, a structural equation model is constructed. Methods: This study conducted a questionnaire survey with seafarers as the research subjects, distributing a total of 451 questionnaires. Statistical analysis of the questionnaire data is performed using SPSS 26.0, and structural equation modeling is conducted using AMOS 24.0. Results: The constructed structural equation model demonstrated a good overall fit. Both subjective well-being and general self-efficacy are significantly negatively correlated with job burnout. Psychological resilience played a partially mediating role between subjective well-being and job burnout. Conclusion: Subjective well-being and general self-efficacy are two crucial influencing factors leading to job burnout in seafarers. Psychological resilience can mitigate job burnout levels by increasing subjective well-being, and it acts as a partial mediator between subjective well-being and job burnout.

Abstract:

Background The work experience of seafarers differs significantly from other land-based occupations due to several factors, particularly remoteness and the restricted work environment. This study seeks to examine the impact of burnout and health impairment in the maritime industry, using the Job Demand-Resources theory as a framework. Methods To investigate these phenomena, an online questionnaire was sent to 239 Italian seafarers (94.6% men, Mage = 39.44, SD = 12.8). We tested a mediated Structural Equation Model (SEM) aimed at predicting negative health outcomes. Results The results show that burnout plays a mediating role between job demands (such as workload and cognitive strain) and resources (such as social support and transformational leadership), influencing variables related to health impairment (such as sleep quality and physical well-being). Furthermore, the findings highlight the direct influence of occupational resources on seafarers’ health. Conclusions The discussion highlights the urgent need for more research in the field of organisational psychology in the maritime industry and the discrepancies between these findings, which are consistent with the existing maritime literature, and other studies that do not include seafarers in their sample groups.

Abstract:

Seafaring is considered one of the most stressful professions. Stressors in seafaring lead to typical symptoms of stress, such as insomnia, loss of concentration, anxiety, lower tolerance of frustration, changes in eating habits, psychosomatic symptoms and diseases, and overall reduced productivity, with the possibility of burnout and chronic responsibility syndrome. It has been previously determined that seafarers belong to high-risk occupations in terms of developing metabolic syndrome, and according to their BMIs, almost 50% of all seafarers belong to the overweight and obesity categories. This is the first longitudinal study conducted with the aim of using the BIA method to determine the anthropometrical changes that occur during several weeks of continuous onboard service. This study included an observed group consisting of 63 professional seafarers with 8 to 12 weeks of continuous onboard service and a control group of 36 respondents from unrelated occupations. It was determined that Croatian seafarers fit into the current world trends regarding overweight and obesity among the seafaring population, with the following percentages in the BMI categories: underweight, 0%; normal weight, 42.86%; overweight, 39.68%; and obesity, 17.46%. It was established that the anthropometric statuses of the seafarers significantly changed during several weeks of continuous onboard service. Seafarers who served on board for 11 weeks lost 0.41 kg of muscle mass, whereas their total fat mass increased by 1.93 kg. Changes in anthropometric parameters could indicate deterioration of seafarers’ health statuses.

Abstract:

The maritime industry has long been a crucial component of Malaysia's economy. Seafarers in this industry face unique psychosocial, work-related, and environmental stressors, which can negatively impact their health, safety, and well-being. The operations of offshore support vessels (OSVs) are particularly hazardous and require effective strategies for occupational stress management. The Fuzzy Delphi method was used to identify the key enablers of occupational stress in OSV operations. The study has found that the main enablers of occupational stress in seafaring include vulnerability towards occupational hazards and risks, human capital skills, onboard living conditions, governance capacity, and mental burnout. These findings can help guide efforts to address the occupational stressors faced by seafarers serving on OSVs and enhance their working conditions, skills, and health. Shipping companies, policymakers, and organisations must collaborate to ensure the compliance with marine regulations and standards, improve shift schedules, and implement proper mechanisms to maintain the occupational health of seafarers during and post the Covid-19 pandemic.

Abstract:

Abstract Background Seafarers are often reported to be engaged in a dangerous physical and psychosocial work environment. However, mental health status among seafarers has not been focused on compared with physical health issues. Systematic, comprehensive reviews of mental health problems and their relevant factors are lacking. This review aimed to clarify beneficial approaches to the mental health problems faced among seafarers using a scoping review to systematically map the evidence regarding mental health issues and their related factors. Methods Studies were searched on MEDLINE/PubMed, Science Direct, Academic search complete using EBSCOhost databases, SCOPUS, EMBASE, and Web of science on 20, August 2020. This scoping review was conducted based on the framework of Arksey and O’Malley and Preferred Reporting items for Scoping Reviews flow diagram. The inclusion criteria were studies which determined the relationship between factors relevant to working conditions or working environment, and mental health in seafarers, and etc. Data were narratively summarized and reported. Results Twenty-four were included in this review while two major findings were clarified. Firstly, the prevalence of stress, depressive symptoms, and burnout have been mentioned for decades. Secondly, factors related to mental health and psychological issues can be categorized as individual and work environmental factors. The individual factors include experience, age, health status (high BMI, poor sleep, and diabetics), and resilience. The work environmental factors consist of two parts. Job demands comprise pressure from contractors/customers/time, working hours, ship department, job title, voyage episodes, period of seafaring, noise, and vibration. The job resources included instrumental support, team cohesion, shipboard caring and effort-reward imbalance. Conclusions A beneficial approach to mental health problems faced among seafarers is necessary to understand comprehensively at individual and organization levels. Promoting health behaviors, training resilience, and managing obesity and chronic diseases comprise individual level strategies. Providing seafarers with adequate instrumental support, and practical support to communicate with customers, managing their distinct work-rest hours and adequate effort-reward balance comprise organization level methods.
