ObjectivesAn increased burden of chronic diseases in the working age population is observed across high income countries. Persons with chronic diseases (PwCDs) are less likely to maintain or return to work due to several constraints they experience. The purpose of the study was to assess the preferences and needs of PwCDs regarding 6 areas of flexibility at the workplace. It was assessed whether there were any personal characteristics associated with higher or lower expectations and needs.Material and MethodsThis was a part of a large multicenter international project, i.e., the PArticipation To Healthy Workplaces And inclusive Strategies in the Work Sector (PATHWAYS) project, aimed to contribute to the development of innovative approaches to promote professional integration and reintegration of PwCDs into the work sector. In Poland, 59 respondents diagnosed with different chronic diseases were identified through advocacy groups. An on-line survey was conducted to collect information on their needs and expectations. A cluster analysis was performed to reveal some expectation types which differentiated individuals across 6 analyzed domains, along with a multivariable logistic regression to identify some characteristics associated with a special expectation type.ResultsWorkplace facilitator items were generally scored as needed (“rather conductive” and “very conductive” groups identified). The factors positively associated with higher needs in this domain were education, and a hindering type of the disease. Unrestricted working hours were very conductive or indifferent, and were positively associated with education. Legal solutions were more conductive for older people. Medical support, access to training, and supervisors’ knowledge were needed in general, with no associations with the personal characteristics identified.ConclusionsPersons with chronic diseases report several facilitators which are needed for them to maintain or return to work, but they are not satisfied with the existing economy in Poland. These needs should be taken into consideration in the effective policy development.

Opis:
Objectives Over the past decade, there has been a markedly growing interest in issues involving work-related stress in Europe. In Italy, according to Eurofound, research has demonstrated high levels of stress in the banking sector. With this in mind, a study was conducted to evaluate the peculiarities of hindrance and challenge stressors, and their links with recovery in the Italian banking population. Material and Methods The health and safety managers of a major Italian banking group were contacted and invited to participate in a stress assessment procedure, not only for research purposes but also to help them fulfill their obligations with regard to work-related stress. In total, 6588 bank workers took part in the study (57.5% males and 42.5% females) in 2012–2018. Work-related stress was measured with the Stress Questionnaire (SQ) that assesses several psychosocial working variables. Recovery was measured using a scale based on the SQ. The analysis and tabulation of the study results were performed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). Results The results have demonstrated that female respondents lack more job control and colleagues’ support as compared to male respondents. Employees aged > 50 lack their supervisors’ support while employees with the shortest job seniority experience the greatest role ambiguity, as well as the lack of job control and colleagues’ support. The results of hierarchical regression analysis have demonstrated that the lack of colleagues and supervisors’ support, as well as job demands and job control, contribute to explaining the recovery experience. The greatest contribution to the explained variance could be attributed to job demands and the lack of colleagues’ support. Conclusions This study has demonstrated an important contribution of the so-called traditional stressors to predicting recovery for the banking population in Italy. These findings suggest that banks should adopt corporate policies containing activities for the prevention of and protection against stress, with a more general objective of improving the mental health of their workers.

Opis:
Wstęp Do narażenia zawodowego na substancje chemiczne dochodzi głównie drogami inhalacyjną i skórną. Ocena narażenia inhalacyjnego wynika z przepisów prawa, natomiast dla narażenia dermalnego w Polsce nie wskazano prawnie sposobu przeprowadzania badań i pomiarów. Z powodu wprowadzenia ograniczeń 71 i 76 do załącznika XVII do rozporządzenia REACH dla 1-metylo-2-pirolidonu (NMP) i N,N-dimetyloformamidu (DMF) konieczne jest przeprowadzenie oceny narażenia drogą dermalną obok oceny narażenia inhalacyjnego. Ograniczenia te wiążą się z koniecznością dotrzymania wartości pochodnego poziomu niepowodującego zmian (derived no-effect level – DNEL) dla narażenia przez skórę. Celem pracy była ocena przydatności wybranych modeli bezpomiarowych do szacowania dermalnego narażenia zawodowego na związki chemiczne dla potrzeb oceny zgodności warunków pracy z ograniczeniami 71 i 76 do rozporządzenia REACH. Materiał i metody Wybrano 3 bezpłatne narzędzia, które w zakresie zastosowań mają szacowanie narażenia dermalnego i są zalecane do tego celu przez Europejską Agencję Chemikaliów (European Chemical Agency – ECHA), tj. modele ECETOC TRA, RISKOFDERM i IH SkinPerm, którymi oszacowano narażenie na 2 przykładowych stanowiskach pracy. Wyniki Wybrano 3 bezpłatne narzędzia, które w zakresie zastosowań mają szacowanie narażenia dermalnego i są zalecane do tego celu przez Europejską Agencję Chemikaliów (European Chemical Agency – ECHA), tj. modele ECETOC TRA, RISKOFDERM i IH SkinPerm, którymi oszacowano narażenie na 2 przykładowych stanowiskach pracy. Wnioski Modelowanie narażenia jest dobrym i stosunkowo tanim sposobem określania wielkości narażenia dermalnego na stanowiskach pracy, także w celu spełnienia wymagań ograniczeń 71 i 76 załącznika XVII do rozporządzenia REACH. Zastosowanie modelowania w przypadku zawodowego narażenia dermalnego jest jednym z rozwiązań w sytuacji konieczności dotrzymania wartości DNEL dla narażenia przez skórę.
Background Occupational exposure to chemicals occurs mainly through inhalation and the skin. The inhalation exposure assessment is regulated by law, while in Poland the method of conducting measurements for dermal exposure has not been indicated in the law. However, due to the restrictions 71 and 76 from Annex XVII of REACH for 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) and N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), exposure assessment by the dermal route is necessary. These restrictions require to ensure that exposure of workers is below the derived no-effect levels (DNELs) for dermal exposure. The aim of the work was assessment of suitability of selected non-measurement forecasting models for the estimation of dermal occupational exposure to chemicals for the purposes of assessing compliance of working conditions with the restrictions 71 and 76 of the REACH regulation. Material and Methods Three tools estimating dermal exposure, recommended by European Chemical Agency (ECHA), were selected: ECETOC TRA, RISKOFDERM and IH SkinPerm, which were used to estimate 2 exemplary workplaces. Results Results of the estimations of dermal exposure showed that non-measuring models are useful for fulfilling the obligations under restrictions 71 and 76 of Annex XVII of REACH. The type of exposure scenario and amount of data available for the workplace are crucial for the selection of the model. The ECETOC TRA was considered the best model for this type of analysis, whose main advantages are direct comparison of the output data in mg/kg/day with the DNEL value and use of standardized descriptors system. Conclusions Exposure modeling is a good and cheap way to determine the dermal exposure magnitude at workplaces, also to comply with the requirements of restrictions 71 and 76 of Annex XVII of REACH. The application of modeling in the case of occupational exposure by the dermal route is one of the solutions when it is necessary to comply with the DNEL for dermal exposure.
