Comparing the access conditions for minimum income support in four EU member states for national, EU and non-EU citizens

Moral distress among social workers : the role of insufficient resources

The survey data were collected with an electronic questionnaire between the years 2011 and 2012. The respondents (n = 817) were social workers in the public social welfare services and the overall response rate was 46.5 per cent. Nearly 11 per cent of the respondents reported experi…
