Abstract

Objective. The objective was to describe how the legal factors at work relate to the occupational stress of forensic health professionals. We sought to identify the main work factors that constitute occupational stressors for forensic health professionals. Method. A systematic literature review was carried out with meta-synthesis, based on the Cochrane method and PRISMA-P, with eleven articles retrieved between 1987 and 2020. Results. As a result, occupational stressors that affect forensic health professionals can be divided into psychological, organizational, and legal. The theoretical conception of occupational stressors is multifaceted such as organizational, psychological, and legal, as it assesses, analyzes, and emphasizes one of these aspects of occupational stressors, depending on the theory.
