Johnson SJ, O'Connor EM, Jacobs S, et al. The relationships among work stress, strain and self-reported errors in UK community pharmacy. Res Social Adm Pharm. 2014;10(6):885-895. doi:10.1016/j.sapharm.2013.12.003.
This internet-based survey of pharmacists in the United Kingdom revealed an association between self-reported medication dispensing errors and higher perceived workload, similar to prior nursing studies. These findings contrast with earlier research that showed no relationship between physician working conditions and errors.
