Popis: Abstract Background China has made remarkable achievements in tuberculosis (TB) prevention and control, but it still takes long way to achieve the End TB goal especially in underdeveloped Southwest China. TB healthcare workers (HCWs) are core forces in TB prevention and control but often face job burnout. This study aimed to explore the burden and associated factors of job burnout among TB HCWs in Southwest China. Methods This cross-sectional study used both survey questionnaires and semi-structured interviews, to assess job burnout among TB HCWs based on Malasch Model and explore the associated factors based on Herzberg’s two-factor theory (different hygiene and motivation factors). Quantitative data analysis adopts multiple linear regression to in SPSS 22.0, and qualitative data were analyzed through a framework approach. Results A total of 1140 TB HCWs were included in questionnaire surveys. The overall job burnout rates of TB HCWs in Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), designated hospitals and Primary Health Care (PHC) sectors were 55%, 70.1% and 67.5%, respectively. TB HCWs in CDC who scored lower in interpersonal factors had a higher risk of depersonalization (DP) [B(95%CI): -0.89 (-1.71 to -0.80)]. TB HCWs in designated hospitals who scored lower in doctor-patient relationship factors [B (95%CI): 6.63 (-12.06 to -1.20)] were more likely to have emotional exhaustion (EE). TB HCWs who were less satisfied with training, supervision and assessment in PHC sectors [B(95%CI): 0.65 (0.03 to 1.26)] had less personal accomplishment (PA). Interviews with nine TB HCWs showed that poor environment could lead to high infection and heavy workload could lead to work pressure among TB HCWs in Chongqing. It is also found that performance assessment and management of TB HCWs, communication and cooperation and so on are related to job burnout. Conclusions TB HCWs had different levels of job burnout in CDC, designated hospitals, and PHC sectors of Chongqing, which were affected by different hygiene and motivation factors. Governments, organizations and individuals should take cooperative measures such as strengthening communication to deal with job burnout among TB HCWs.
