Impact of the Workplace Environment on Peer and Non-Peer Mental Health Providers

The Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) and Areas of Worklife Survey (AWS) were completed by mental health workers serving four counties in Pennsylvania. Among providers with their own lived experience, referred to as peer workers , there were significant associations between levels of burnout and both sense of community and sense of control as measured by the community and control subscales of the AWS. These associations were not found among non peer providers.
