Abstract
This study aimed to explore the relationship between perceived stress and presenteeism among geriatric caregivers in long-term care facilities (LTCFs), as well as to examine the mediating role of job burnout. A total of 272 geriatric caregivers in LTCFs were recruited. A cross-sectional survey was conducted using Perceived Stress Scale-10 (PSS-10), Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey (MBI-GS) and the Stanford Presenteeism Scale-6 (SPS-6). The mediating effect of job burnout between perceived stress and presenteeism was tested using the PROCESS macro model 4. The results indicated that job burnout partially mediated the relationship between perceived stress and presenteeism (B = 0.280, 95 %CI: [0.108, 0.186]), accounting for 39.05 % of the total effect. The findings suggest that LTCF managers should take proactive measures to reduce work-related stress of geriatric caregivers, improve their job burnout, and consequently reduce the occurrence of presenteeism.
