The results showed that social workers perceived great diffi cultyin continuing to carry out their functions in this context, as well as a notoriousaff ectation both personally and professionally, with the youngest, those with theleast seniority in the organisation and those with dependent children being themost aff ected in some of the diff erent aspects analysed.
