Abstract

The survey-based descriptive research was performed with the aims of understanding as well as differentiating preconceptions of trainee doctors and nurses working in hospitals towards different elements connected with long working spans and undesirable effects of long working hours on family life, social life and health. The study used the judgment survey method to recruit 360 individuals, including trainee doctors and nurses. A systematic, custom-made questionnaire was used to obtain primary data. Data was analyzed using IBM SPSS version 22.0. The study's findings indicate that people who work in hospitals believe that extended workdays negatively influence their health, relationships with their families, and social lives.
