Work-related exposure to violence or threats and risk of mental disorders and symptoms: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Conclusion The reviewed studies consistently indicate associations b etween workplace violence and mental health problems. However, due to methodological limitations the causal associations (if any) may be stronger or weaker than the ones reported in this study. Prospective studies with independent and validated reporting of exposure and outcome and repeated follow-u p with relevant intervals are highly warranted.byRudkjoebing LA, Bungum AB, Flachs EM, Eller NH, Borritz M, Aust B, Rugulies R, Rod NH, Biering K, Bonde JP. doi:10.5271/sjweh.3880
