Clinical Trial Summary

We spend a third of our life at work. Psychosocial risks (PSR) are a major issue in occupational health 1. Approaching the different dimensions of PSR calls on a dozen essential components: workload, autonomy, social support, burnout, anxiety, efforts made, rewards, work addiction, investment, etc. a specific questionnaire which usually contains 20 to 30 questions, so that having an overall view of PSR using the current reference questionnaires (Karasek, Siegrist, etc.) represents a total of more than 300 questions. The response time is thus incompatible with current medical practice (passage in the waiting room before the occupational health medical examination) and leads to a majority of non-responses during anonymous questionnaires on the Internet. On the other hand, these validated questionnaires were carried out by different people and are very heterogeneous between them, including in their formulation, so that the respondents have the impression of disorganization and anarchy. There is therefore a need for short, quick and uniform questionnaires. EVAs offer the incredible advantage of meeting these criteria: speed, uniformity, precision. From a data analysis point of view, EVAs also have the advantage of offering a continuous quantitative response, allowing the use of all statistical approaches. If some questionnaires have already been validated in the form of EVA, such as the EVA stress versus the " Perceived Stress Scale " questionnaire (PSS), the EVA workload and EVA autonomy at work versus the Karasek questionnaire, the other reference questionnaires are not yet validated in EVA (burnout, anxiety, efforts / rewards, work addiction, etc.).

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Burnout	Burnout on a horizontal, non-calibrated line of 100 mm, ranging from minimum (0) to maximum (100)	Inclusion
Primary	Burnout	Burnout on a horizontal, non-calibrated line of 100 mm, ranging from minimum (0) to maximum (100)	One week later
Primary	Burnout	Burnout using the Maslach Burn-out Inventory (MBI) questionnaire. MBI is composed of 22 items designed to assess the three components of the burn-out syndrome: emotional exhaustion (9 items), depersonalization (5 items) and reduced personal accomplishment (8 items). The items are written in the form of statements about personal feelings or attitudes. Items are made of a 7-point scale frequency of feelings, varying from "never" to "every day". The scores for each component of the burn-out syndrome are considered separately and are not combined into a single total score. If desired for participant feedback, each score can be coded as low, average, or high	Inclusion

Primary	Anxiety	Anxiety using Hospital Anxiety and Depression (HAD) questionnaire. is a self-reported questionnaire composed of 14 items with a 4-point Likert scale assessing anxiety (7 items) and/or depressive (7 items) symptoms. For each subscale (anxiety and depression), total score ranges from 0 to 21. Higher scores indicate higher levels of anxiety or depressive symptoms. A score from 0 to 7 indicates the absence of disease, a score of 8-10 represents doubtful cases, and scores higher than 11 reflects the presence of a mood disorder.	Inclusion

Primary	Job demand / job control / social support	Job demand / job control / social support using the Job Demand-Control-Support (JDSC) questionnaire of Karasek. JDSC assessed job demands, job control and social support through 26 items. The questionnaire measures nine items of job demands, nine items of job control and eight items of social support. Items of JDSC are scored on a four-point Likert-type scale, ranging from 1 = strongly disagree to 4 = strongly agree. Among the 26 items, five negative statements require reverse scoring. From French data, the job strain threshold is set for a demands score higher than 20 and a control score lower than 71; the isostrain threshold is determined from a combining score of job strain and social support lower than 24.

Primary	Effort-reward imbalance	Effort-reward imbalance using Effort-Reward Imbalance Questionnaire (ERI). ERI assessed psychological distress and health problems that may occur when there is an imbalance between the efforts required by the work and the rewards received. We used the 46 items of the French version of the ERI model exploring efforts (six items), over commitment (eleven items), and rewards (seventeen items). Items of ERI were scored on a five-point Likert-type scale, ranging from 1 = disagree to 5 = agree and very disturbed. A ratio extrinsic efforts and rewards can assess the imbalance between these two dimensions. A ratio greater than one defines employees exposed to an imbalance between efforts and rewards	Inclusion
