    Durante las últimas cinco décadas, la cuestión sobre qué causa estrés en el trabajo y qué motiva a la gente ha recibido mucha atención por parte de los investigadores. En este artículo, se expone la teoría de Demandasy Recursos Laborales (DRL), que supone una extensión del modelo de Demandas y Recursos Laborales (Bakker & Demerouti, 2007; Demerouti, Bakker, Nachreiner y Schaufeli, 2001) y que a su vez se inspira en las teorías del diseño del trabajo y del estrés laboral. La teoría DRL explica cómo las demandas y recursos laborales tienen efectos directos e indirectos sobre el estrés laboral y la motivación y propone la existenciade relaciones recíprocas entre estas variables. Esperamos esta teoría que aquí se presenta sirva de ayuda para guiar la investigación y la práctica de tal manera que los empleados puedan trabajar en entornos delaborales más saludables, atractivos y productivos

    The question of what causes job stress and what motivates people has received a lot of research attention during the past five decades. In this paper, we discuss Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) theory, which represents an extension of the Job Demands-Resources model (Bakker & Demerouti, 2007; Demerouti, Bakker, Nachreiner, & Schaufeli, 2001) and is inspired by job design and job stress theories. JD-R theory explains how job demands and resources have unique and multiplicative effects on job stress and motivation, and proposes the existence of reciprocal relationships between these variables. We hope that JD-R theory may help to guide future research and practice such that employees can work in healthier, more engaging, and more productive working environments
