Factors Associated with Work-Life Balance Among Emergency Healthcare Workers

A systematic review synthesizing evidence on factors affecting work-life balance for emergency physicians, nurses, and paramedics. The review analyzed 11 studies from 202 identified records, published between 2015 and 2025, and was conducted by Bartosz Pryba. It assesses determinants like occupational stress, shift-work patterns, and organizational characteristics.

Use Cases

• Analyzing associations between work-life balance impairment and professional burnout based on reviewed evidence.
• Identifying organizational interventions to mitigate work-family conflict based on findings from the included studies.
• Assessing the impact of shift-work patterns and staffing shortages on healthcare worker well-being based on the systematic review.

Strengths

• Follows PRISMA 2020 guidelines and was prospectively registered in PROSPERO (CRD420251237774).
• Appraises methodological quality using Joanna Briggs Institute tools and assesses evidence certainty using GRADE frameworks.
• Includes 11 studies (10 quantitative, 1 qualitative) identified from a search of PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and CINAHL.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The dataset is a single 736.1 KB DOCX file, which is a small, unstructured document rather than a typical tabular dataset.
