Consistent with the findings of several studies, our study
showed that workers at high risk of depression experienced jobrelated
stress and high intra-/inter-group conflict such as poor
communication with supervisor and/or coworkers, high job overload,
and low job satisfaction [35e37]. High job overload and
work-family conflict are thought to be closely related to burnout

imbalance, and work-family conflicts are widely considered aspects
of job-related stress [35e37,40]. Saijo et al [41] reported that lack of
supervisor support was significantly associated with depressive
disorders
