title: [The organization of work in hospitals and its effect on nurses health.].
abstract: This article covers the actual knowledge on the organization of infirmary work and its effects on nurses' physical and mental health. Then it proposes a conceptual model to study the question. This model is concerned with the relationship between the work load, a potential source of health problems and the autonomy and the social support which may relieve the load or its effects.
