Opis:
Objectives: This paper is a report on the relationship between a sense of coherence (and its components) and work related patterns of behaviour in the group of nurses. Materials and Method: Data were collected by two questionnaires (Antonovsky’s Orientation Questionnaire and Work Related Patterns of Behaviour and Experience Questionnaire) in the sample of 331 volunteer nurses employed in three Polish general care hospitals. Results: The analysis of r-Pearson’s correlation and the linear multiple regression analysis revealed a strong relationship between the sense of coherence and healthy type of behaviour, and a strong negative relationship with a burnout type of behaviour. Conclusion: The results obtained in this study provide grounds for the conclusion that the sense of coherence correlates with healthy functioning at work in the group of nurses.

Opis:
Predictions for the upcoming decades suggest an increase in the number of elderly people in Europe; due to low fertility and the rise in average life expectancy, societies age considerably faster. The nature of these changes signifies that a complex demographic process is taking place. In consequence, one can notice an increase in the demand for personal and nursing care activities provided in the natural human environment, or in various institutions, by adequately prepared, specialized medical staff. Creating the best possible procedures for assisting elderly people is a multifaceted and dynamic problem. The constantly changing expectations regarding healthcare providers, and the higher social and health awareness are challenging medical sciences and social services to provide the oldest generation with the best quality of life. The life satisfaction measure for elderly people is their activity which determines an independent, self-reliant, satisfactory, and long life.

Background What significantly affects the health of an individual health behaviour. It is of particular importance in the case of people working in very harsh environmental conditions. The aim of this study is to examine health behaviour among miners. Material and Methods The research data was collected with the use of the diagnostic survey method based on the Health Behaviour Inventory questionnaire developed by Juczyński. Two hundred coal miners were surveyed. The results obtained were subjected to a statistical analysis. A significance level of p < 0.05 was assumed, which indicates the occurrence of statistically significant differences or relations. Results The level of health behaviour among miners may be determined as medium and low. The research group obtained the best results with regard to their mental attitude, while their preventive behaviour received the worst evaluation. Conclusions The research confirms the necessity of implementing health promotion programmes among miners, which would be focusing particularly on health behaviour. Med Pr 2015;66(6):753–761
Wstęp Elementem istotnie wpływającym na stan zdrowia jednostki są jej zachowania zdrowotne. Szczególnie rolę odgrywają w przypadku osób wykonujących pracę zawodową w bardzo trudnych warunkach środowiskowych. Dlatego celem pracy było zbadanie zachowań zdrowotnych górników. Materiał i metody W pracy wykorzystano metodę sondażu diagnostycznego w oparciu o kwestionariusz Inwentarza Zachowań Zdrowotnych Juczyńskiego. Badaniami objęto 200 górników kopalni węgla kamiennego. Uzyskane wyniki badań poddano analizie statystycznej. Za poziom istotności przyjęto p < 0,05 wskazujący na istnienie istotnych statystycznie różnic bądź zależności. Wyniki Zachowania zdrowotne górników kształtują się na poziomie średnim i niskim. Najlepsze wyniki badana grupa uzyskała w zakresie nastawienia psychicznego, a najgorzej ocenione zostały zachowania profilaktyczne. Wnioski Badania potwierdzają konieczność wdrażania programów promocji zdrowia wśród górników szczególnie ukierunkowanych na zachowania zdrowotne. Med. Pr. 2015;66(6):753–761

Opis:
Objectives: The presented study explored health beliefs and experiences as well as health education needs of low-educated employees (LEEs) (incomplete primary, primary, lower secondary and basic vocational education) in comparison to those with higher education (secondary and tertiary education) in four European countries: Latvia, Poland, Slovenia and Spain. The main aim was to identify a specificity of low-educated employees (LEEs) by capturing their opinions, experiences, attitudes and needs concerning health education. Material and Methods: The sample consisted of 1691 individuals with the status of an employee (approximately 400 respondents in each of 4 countries participating in the project). The respondents were aged 25-54 (both the control group and the target group consisted in 1/3 of the following age groups: 25-34, 35-44 and 45-54). The respondents were interviewed during the years 2009 and 2010 with a structured questionnaire concerning their health, health behaviours as well as educational needs concerning health education. Results: The study revealed substantial differences in the attitudes of people from this group concerning methodology of health education. LEEs prefer more competitions and campaigns and less written educational materials in comparison to those with higher education. Additionally, they more often perceive a fee, longer time, necessity to take part in a knowledge test and a concern that their health will be checked as factors that can discourage them from taking part in a health training. On the other hand, LEEs can by encouraged to take part in such a training by a media broadcast concerning the event, snacks or lottery during the training, or financial incentives. Conclusions: The results of the study proved the need for specific health education guidelines to conduct health education for low-educated employees. These guidelines should take in account the sources of health education preferred by LEEs as well as the factors that can encourage/discourage their participation in trainings concerning health.

Objectives: To assess relationship between physical activity (PA) and perceived work ability amongst teachers from the Upper Silesia, Poland. Material and Methods: The study involved 171 teachers (129 women, 42 men) of primary and secondary schools of the Upper Silesia, Poland. Physical education teachers were excluded from the study. The level of PA was estimated using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire short version, and perceived work ability was estimated using Work Ability Index (WAI). Results: Male teachers had significantly higher levels of vigorous-intensity PA, moderateintensity PA, and total weekly PA than female teachers. The recommendations of the World Health Organization (WHO) met 46% of studied women and 74% of men. Work ability did not differ between male and female teachers. Work ability was related to age, body mass index (BMI), and PA (vigorous-intensity PA, moderate-intensity PA, total weekly PA). The female teachers with excellent or good WAI had significantly higher levels of vigorous-intensity PA, moderate-intensity PA and total weekly PA than female teachers with moderate or poor WAI. Conclusions: The teachers involving in high or moderate intensity PA could improve their work ability. Further studies should focus on relation between physical activity and work ability among teachers of various age and seniority, from both, urban and rural schools.

Objectives The aging of the workforce is an issue that calls for concrete measures to promote the health of older workers. This study reports on the results of the European “ProHealth65+” research project interventions conducted in Poland in relation to workplace health promotion for older workers (WHPOW) and the institutions involved in these programs. Material and Methods A three-stage search of peer-reviewed and grey literature on the WHPOW in Poland. Results A total of 59 WHPOW programs were retrieved in Poland in the observation period (2000–2015). Most of these aimed at improving the Qualification and Training or at the Work Climate and attitudes toward older workers. The promotion, organization, and funding of these activities were carried out mainly by supra-national and governmental bodies, enterprises and employers, and educational and trainee institutions. Conclusions Although there is great commitment to the medical surveillance of workers on the part of the Polish occupational health service, our search detected a relatively low number of the WHPOW initiatives. Greater efforts should be made to introduce strategies for addressing aging of the workforce. Int J Occup Med Environ Health 2018;31(6):753–761

BackgroundWhen assessing physical activity (PA), particular attention should be paid to medical university students who are taught to be health care professionals (HCPs) responsible for maintaining health in humans. However, different studies have shown that HCPs exhibit the same unhealthy behaviors as the general population. This study analyzed PA among medical university students of different faculties and their adherence to current PA recommendations.Material and MethodsData from 216 medical university students of physiotherapy, dietetics and pharmacy, including males (N = 44) and females (N = 172), the mean age of 22.3±1.8 years, were collected. The International Physical Activity Questionnaire in its long form (IPAQ-LF) was used to assess and classify PA behaviors. The results were analyzed in accordance with World Health Organization recommendations regarding PA.ResultsOver 60% of all the students were classified as active during all-day activity. However, while analyzing PA in different domains, the same shares of all the students were still insufficiently active during leisure time, and so they did not meet the recommendation of >75 min/week of vigorous PA, >150 min/week of moderate PA or an equivalent combination. All the students self-reported PA mainly in the work and transport domains. Generally, physiotherapy students were the most active and performed PA with higher intensity.ConclusionsThis study revealed a low level of leisure time PA among the students, and no habit of regular PA. Some changes in medical education should be suggested to include physical education as a long-term subject in medical school curricula. Future research is needed to investigate the exercise barriers that students perceive, which can guide future interventions aimed at improving their PA, and thereby impact on the quality of health care which they will provide.

Opis:
Prognozowana na najbliższe lata intensyfikacja procesu starzenia się polskiego społeczeństwa spowoduje poważne konsekwencje gospodarczo-społeczne. W skali makro będą obserwowane mniejsze wpływy do budżetu państwa (w związku ze zmniejszaniem liczebności siły roboczej) i wyższe wydatki publiczne (na emerytury, opiekę medyczną, opiekę długoterminową). Następstwa w skali mezo, tj. dotyczące zakładów pracy, polegają na kurczeniu i starzeniu się zasobów pracy, co spowoduje poważne trudności w rekrutacji. Prawdopodobny jest też spadek produktywności starzejącej się załogi powiązany z absencją chorobową i prezentyzmem. Państwo może sprostać tym wyzwaniom, wspierając jak najdłuższą, utrzymywaną na wysokim poziomie aktywność społeczną i zawodową społeczeństwa. Narzędziem takiej polityki uczyniono m.in. promocję zdrowia w miejscu pracy (PZwMP). W literaturze – choć w wielu pozycjach wskazuje się różnorodne zalety tej promocji – brakuje kompleksowego opracowania podsumowującego jej osiągnięcia w kontekście starzenia się ludności. Dlatego celem artykułu jest przedstawienie dowodów naukowych przemawiających za skutecznością promocji zdrowia w miejscu pracy w przeciwdziałaniu lub łagodzeniu skutków tego procesu demograficznego (kurczenia się zasobów pracy oraz spadku produktywności starzejącego się personelu powiązanego z zachowaniami absencyjnymi). Przeprowadzono narracyjny przegląd literatury (polsko- i angielskojęzycznej, zidentyfikowanej w bazach EBSCO, PubMed, za pomocą wyszukiwarki Google oraz metodą „śnieżnej kuli”). Potencjał PZwMP w omawianym zakresie polega na jej skuteczności we wzmacnianiu zdrowia i przeciwdziałaniu problemom zdrowotnym personelu. Dobra kondycja zdrowotna, poprzez wzmacnianie zdolności do pracy oraz podtrzymywanie aktywności zawodowej, ogranicza kurczenie się zasobów pracy. Zmniejsza skalę absencji i prezentyzmu. Szeroko rozumiane problemy zdrowotne mają z kolei działanie odwrotne. Chociaż analizy skuteczności PZwMP we wzmacnianiu zdolności do pracy, wydłużaniu aktywności zawodowej, redukcji absencji, prezentyzmu czy spowodowanych nimi strat produktywności należą do słabo rozwiniętych obszarów badawczych, to zgromadzone systematyczne przeglądy literatury wskazują na jej potencjał w tym zakresie. Med. Pr. 2019;70(5):617–631
A significant intensification of the ageing process in Poland, projected for the upcoming years, will have serious socioeconomic consequences. This demographic process at the macro level will result in lower contributions to the state budget (due to decreased workforce) and higher public expenses (on pensions, healthcare and long-term care). Implications at the meso (workplace) level will include the diminishing and ageing of workforce, which will then cause troubles in recruitment. Decreased ageing personnel’s productivity due to absence and presenteeism is also probable. One way of coping with such challenges by the state is to support social and occupational activity of the society. One of the tools to be employed within such a policy is workplace health promotion (WHP). In literature there are no thorough elaborations summarizing WHP advantages in this field. The aim of this paper is to outline the scientific evidence of WHP effectiveness in counteracting/reducing the consequences of the ageing process (the shrinking workforce and the declining productivity of the ageing personnel, associated with absence/presenteeism). A narrative literature review was conducted (Polish and English publications identified in the EBSCO/PubMed databases, using the Google engine and a snowball method). The potential of WHP stems from its effectiveness in enhancing employees’ health/preventing health problems. A good health condition reduces the shrinking of workforce via sustaining workability/occupational activity. It also mitigates the impact of absence and/or presenteeism. Health problems have the opposite effect. Although the analysis of the WHP effectiveness in strengthening workability, extending occupational activity, reducing absence/presenteeism/related loss of productivity belongs to poorly developed scientific areas, the systematic literature reviews that have been gathered reflect the WHP potential in these fields.

Objectives The main aim of this study was to examine the health behavior patterns of soldiers in the Hungarian Defense Forces and to introduce health behavior profiles according to the cluster analysis of lifestyle factors. Material and Methods The soldiers (N = 5475) who underwent health tests in 2011–2015 participated in this cross-sectional study. The factors included in the analysis are the following: age, sex, diseases diagnosed, the body mass index, eating habits, the smoking status, daily physical activity, sporting habits, the presence of psychosomatic symptoms, mental toughness and sleep apnea. The response options for each factor were scored on a linear scale; the minimum number of points available was –47.5 pts and the maximum number was 48.5 pts according to the 24 factors. Finally, the authors created health profiles typical of the pattern with the cluster analysis of the data. Results As a result of the cluster analysis, 16 distinct profiles were found, 10 of which differed significantly (p < 0.05) from each other. The lowest point value achieved was 3.1 pts and the highest was 26.2 pts. The lowest number of points was achieved by the cluster, 1.8% of the sample, with the highest average age (43.5±7.2 years) in which women showed the highest participation (46%). The 2 clusters with the highest numbers of points, 2.9% and 5.5% of the sample, were the 2 groups with the lowest average age (33.7±7.1 years and 34.3±7.9 years). Conclusions The significance of the health profiles obtained during this examination with the Hungarian Defense Forces is that the health promotion intervention opportunities may be determined by clusters, the health behavior factor with which the authors can reach higher health benefits can be chosen and the effectiveness of the interventions carried out can be traced easily.

Background: This paper presents the prevalence of health promotion in workplaces in Poland. It characterises the undertaken actions, their rationale and perceived obstacles. It analyses the diversity of these phenomena in the companies of different financial soundness and level of employment. Material and Methods: The study was conducted with the use of Computer Assisted Telephone Interview in 2010 on the representative national sample of 1002 workplaces hiring more than 50 employees. The data was compared with the results of the survey conducted in 2006, with the use of a Paper and Pencil interview on 611 similar companies. Results: Both studies have shown that 40% of the companies are concerned about their employees' health to a greater extent than they are obliged to by the law. At the same time, more than 80% of the companies have been introducing various modifications and health-oriented actions without definite health intentions. Most companies improve their physical working environment, organise/sponsor medical services, sports activities and try to reduce stress and smoking. Managers have increased their awareness of business benefits received from health promotion. They have displayed more personal involvement in health promotion implementation. The most often mentioned obstacles have included limited financial resources and little interest of employees regarding health issues. Conclusions: The larger and wealthier the company is, the more often health promotion in the company is performed. Such a company is more convinced about an increase in its activities and has more reasons to care about health. Unequal access to health promotion of workers in different companies may contribute to an increase in health inequalities in the working population. Med Pr 2013;64(6):743–754
Wprowadzenie: W artykule przedstawiono stopień rozpowszechnienia promocji zdrowia w zakładach pracy w Polsce, scharakteryzowano podejmowaną aktywność, powody jej realizacji oraz wskazywane przeszkody. Pokazano zróżnicowanie tych zjawisk w firmach o różnej kondycji ekonomicznej oraz wielkości zatrudnienia. Materiał i metody: Badanie przeprowadzono w oparciu o wywiad telefoniczny standaryzowany, wspomagany komputerowo (Computer Assisted Telephone Interview - CATI) w 2010 r. w ogólnopolskiej próbie reprezentatywnej 1002 zakładów pracy, w których zatrudniano powyżej 50 pracowników. Dane zostały porównane z wynikami sondażu z 2006 r., przeprowadzonego metodą standaryzowanego wywiadu bezpośredniego (Paper and Pencil Interview - PAPI) wśród 611 podobnych firm. Wyniki: Oba badania pokazały, że 40% firm troszczy się o zdrowie personelu w większym stopniu, niż wymaga tego prawo. Jednocześnie ponad 80% wprowadza zmiany i działania sprzyjające zdrowiu, nie wiążąc ich intencjonalnie ze zdrowiem. Najwięcej firm doskonali fizyczne środowisko pracy, organizuje/sponsoruje usługi medyczne, zajęcia sportowe, próbuje redukować stres oraz palenie tytoniu. Wśród menadżerów wzrosła świadomość biznesowych korzyści z promocji zdrowia, częściej też osobiście angażują się w jej wdrożenie. Najczęściej wskazywane przeszkody w realizacji działań to ograniczone środki finansowe i małe zainteresowanie pracowników zdrowiem. Wnioski: Im większa i bogatsza firma, tym częściej prowadzona jest w niej promocja zdrowia i obecne jest przekonanie, że robi się więcej niż kilka lat temu, wskazywanych jest też więcej powodów tych działań. Nierówny dostęp do promocji zdrowia pracowników firm o innej wielkości zatrudnienia i kondycji ekonomicznej może przyczyniać się do wzrostu różnic w stanie zdrowia w populacji pracujących. Med.

Opis:
Objectives In the contemporary Western culture, working population health issues, stressed in various publications, have been perceived as a crucial part of public health. To deal with occupational health issues properly, occupational health services (OHS), aiming at the protection of the workers’ health, are organized in many countries. The survey was to find the differences in occupational health systems that the European Economic Area countries use in order to execute prophylactic activities focused on diseases of affluence and how the OHS are used for health promotion actions. Material and Methods The survey was conducted with the use of an on-line expert questionnaire. No deep statistical analysis was performed as for the designed aims of the study simple statistics were sufficient. Results All the reviewed countries have organized OHS. The funding mechanisms are based mainly on the financial involvement of employers. In the majority of countries, the main goal of the OHS is certification of the ability to work. Workplace surveillance aiming at the occupational risk assessment and health promotion activities that focus on work-related and/or occupational diseases are the most popular services provided within national systems. Conclusions Occupational health professionals are well placed to perform actions directed at health promotion and prophylactics of a wide range of diseases – not only occupational/work-related, but also non-communicable, particularly life-style-related diseases of affluence. The engagement of the occupational medical services (OMS) in prevention of the non-work-related health issues would be valuable. However, it would be inevitable for employers to finance a wider range of services to a greater extent. Int J Occup Med Environ Health. 2019;32(3):353–61

Opis:
Background: This paper presents the opinions of Polish employees on how they think of and use the Internet in the context of health, including occupational health. The outcomes show the usefulness of this medium in the ongoing activities regarding health education and promotion in this target group. Material and Methods: The analysis focuses on the empirical data from the first representative research on the working population in Poland, conducted in 2012 among 1012 respondents, using the structured interview method. Results: Employees believe that the Internet plays a positive role in helping employees stay healthy. They appreciate its importance as a tool to support people with similar health problems and the alternative source of information on health issues. Workers are mostly unhappy with information overload about health and difficulty in identifying the reliable ones. Significant number of employees expect the websites expert control and even perpetrators' punishment. Around half of the workers look for the needed information on the Internet and the same number get acquainted with it, if they come across it by chance. The study shows that there was a small employees' interest regarding data on occupational health hazards, how to counteract them and legal regulations on health at work. If it was a case though, they used the web. Employees expect greater use of the Internet in their workplaces regarding occupational health issues than ever before. Conclusions: It was found that there are necessary foundations to treat the Internet as an influencing tool in health education and promotion campaigns aimed at employees. Med Pr 2014;65(1):1–13
Wstęp: Artykuł prezentuje opinie pracowników w Polsce o Internecie i informacje o sposobie korzystania z niego w zakresie pozyskiwania wiedzy dotyczącej sfery zdrowia i choroby, w tym zdrowia zawodowego. Ustalenia są punktem wyjścia do odpowiedzi na pytanie o użyteczność tego medium w bieżących działaniach z zakresu edukacji zdrowotnej i promocji zdrowia dla takiej grupy docelowej. Materiał i metody: W analizie skoncentrowano się na danych empirycznych. Pochodzą one z pierwszego reprezentatywnego badania populacji zatrudnionych w Polsce, przeprowadzonego w 2012 r. wśród 1012 respondentów metodą wywiadu kwestionariuszowego. Wyniki: Pracownicy uważają, że Internet spełnia pozytywną rolę, pomagając ludziom dbać o zdrowie. Szczególnie doceniają jego znaczenie jako narzędzia wsparcia dla osób, które mają podobne problemy zdrowotne, oraz alternatywnego źródła informacji o sprawach zdrowia. Najbardziej pracownicy są niezadowoleni z nadmiaru w sieci informacji o zdrowiu i chorobie oraz z trudności z rozpoznaniem wiarygodnych danych. Znaczący odsetek respondentów oczekuje kontrolowania przez ekspertów treści zamieszczanych w Internecie, a nawet karania nadawców szkodliwych wiadomości. Około połowa pracowników poszukuje w sieci potrzebnych im informacji i taka sama część zapoznaje się z nimi, jeśli trafia na nie przypadkowo. W ostatnim roku respondenci wykazywali niskie zainteresowanie danymi na temat zagrożeń zdrowia w pracy i sposobów przeciwdziałania im czy rozwiązań prawnych dotyczących zdrowia w pracy. Jeśli jednak byli tym zainteresowani, to najczęściej korzystali z Internetu jako źródła informacji. Jednocześnie pracownicy oczekują od zatrudniających ich zakładów pracy większego wykorzystania Internetu w sprawach zdrowia zawodowego niż dotychczas. Wnioski: Stwierdzono, że istnieją niezbędne podstawy, żeby traktować Internet jako jedno z narzędzi oddziaływania w kampaniach edukacji zdrowotnej i projektach promocji zdrowia adresowanych do pracowników.

Opis:
This review includes information about the number of private health insurance and medical subscriptions in Poland, as well as the level of increases in premium rates, and the scale of health promotion and prevention conducted by Polish employers. The aim of this article is to present the current situation on the supplementary private medical market, which is involved in employees’ healthcare, and the challenges that both employers and medical providers with health insurers are now facing, and also to present the reasons why prevention and health promotion are important factors of healthcare under private health insurance. For the purpose of this review, scientific publications devoted to health promotion at the workplace were used, along with statistical data presented in the studies released by the Polish Insurance Association, the Polish Social Security Institution, the World Health Organization and the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development. The literature search was carried out using the electronic databases of PubMed. Search terms included medical subject headings and free text words. No year of publication restriction was imposed. The conducted analysis shows that the demand for private medical care is rising. Employers are willing to invest in private medical care for their employees, although the scale is much lower among small and medium-sized entrepreneurs due to fiscal burdens. Given the rising demand and an insufficient number of specialists, access to medical services is deteriorating, and the premium rates and costs are rising. More employers are investing in health promotion at the workplace in order to decrease absenteeism and presenteeism, lower the utilization of medical packages, and improve their attractiveness on the market. Although the interest in private medical care is rising, employers should focus on health promotion and prevention at the workplace, and adapt their actions to the employees’ current needs and health issues.

Opis:
Countries in transition, such as Serbia, have been going through obligatory system reforms, including the reform of the healthcare system. As a rule, occupational health becomes marginalized by the authorities who decide on medical care. In spite of the fact that this branch of medicine cares for working population that mostly carries the burden of transition, when material situation equals the existential minimum, its potentials are not recognized. On the other hand, the World Health Organization makes a remark that such population’s health is undermined now more than ever, and adopts a binding global plan for member countries and their experts in occupational health to take urgent measures for overall working people’s health according to their needs. It seems that former work method of biomedicine specialists could not realize such ambition. This paper discusses the possibilities of occupational health future orientation toward holistic medicine, for the sake of workers’ well-being and better quality of their lives, then creation of more humane society and vocational affirmation. Health promotion at workplace and salutogenic concept may have crucial roles. This concept is a huge challenge for academic public and vocational practitioners in poor countries in transition that are already burdened with the current economic and financial crisis. Each in their own way, helped by self-education and education, without big material investments, together they may take their countries to the road of health, the road still rarely taken, yet more secure.

Objectives The objectives of these investigations completed on workplaces in the Hungarian mining industry were to characterize the physiological strain of workers by means of work pulse and to examine the effects of work-related psychological factors. Material and Methods Continuous heart rate (HR) recording was completed on 71 miners over a total of 794 shifts between 1987 and 1992 in mining plants of the Hungarian mining industry using a 6-channel recorder – Bioport (ZAK, Germany). The work processes were simultaneously documented by video recording along with drawing up the traditional ergonomic workday schedule. All workers passed health evaluation for fitness for work. The effects of different psychological factors (simulated danger, “instrument stress,” presence of managers, and effect of prior involvement in accidents as well as different mining technologies and work place illumination) on the work pulse were evaluated. The statistical analysis was completed using SPSS software (version 13.0, SPSS Inc., USA). Results The work-related physiological strain differed between work places with different mining technologies in groups of 12–18 workers. The work pulse was lowest in bauxite mining (ΔHR = 22±8.9 bpm) and highest in drift drilling in dead rock with electric drilling machine (ΔHR = 30±6.9 bpm). During sham alarm situation the work pulse was significantly higher than during normal activities with the same physical task (ΔHR = 36.7±4.8 bpm vs. 25.8±1.6 bpm, p < 0.001). When work was performed under different psychological stress, the work pulse was consistently higher, while improving the work place illumination decreased the physiological strain appreciably (ΔHR (median, 25–75 percentiles) = 23, 20–26 bmp vs. 28, 25–31.3 bpm, p < 0.001). Conclusions Recording the heart rate during whole-shift work along with the work conditions gives reliable results and helps isolating factors that contribute to increased strain. The results can be used to implement preventive and health promotion measures.
