Opis:
Occupational tasks of linemen are highly associated with the development of work related musculoskeletal disorders (WRMDs). Although linemen are prone to develop WRMDs, there is paucity of information on the prevalence of WRMDs and related occupational causative factors. Therefore, the present review was conducted to report on the prevalence of WRMDs and to outline causative risk factors within occupational tasks in the lineman profession. Literature search was conducted in various databases such as Scopus, PubMed and ScienceDirect for articles published between 1996–2013. The articles were analyzed, selected and retrieved based on predetermined objectives, inclusion criteria and Medical Subject Headings (MeSH). In the review process only articles published in English were considered. The review identified moderate to high prevalence of WRMDs among the linemen population. Back and shoulder regions were highly affected compared to the other body regions. The review also reported occupational tasks such as bar installation, insulator fixation and manual handling of tools as high risk tasks that lead to the development of WRMDs. In addition, occupational tools such as ladders, manual cutters and manual presses were also identified as a potential ergonomic hazard. In conclusion, the current review identified that WRMDs are common in the back and shoulder regions among linemen. Also, a number of occupational risk factors were identified to be associated with WRMDs among the linemen. Hence, future research on prevention and intervention studies concerning lineman profession population in order to develop a good job practice are recommended.

Objectives: This study aimed to conduct a 2-year follow-up of mental disorders in healthcare workers (HCWs) in a region of China outside the epidemic’s core zone who happened to be directly or possibly exposed to persons with COVID-19. Material and Methods: A cognitive analysis scale was utilized in the evaluation the mental or emotional state of HCWs at Xuzhou Medical University’s affiliated hospital in the city of Xuzhou, China (a non-core epidemic area) 2 years after the first assessment during the COVID-19 pandemic. A total of 165 HCWs were selected as the study subjects. In accordance to the exposure risk of COVID-19 patients, the subjects were separated into 2 categories: a group with a high risk HCW (HHCW) (HCWs working in COVID-19-positive wards; N = 91) and a group with a minimal risk HCW (LHCW) (HCWs who worked in wards without COVID-19 patients at the same hospital; N = 75). The clinical as well as demographic information of every HCWs were collected. Results: The demographic data revealed significant differences in terms of occupation, remuneration, and selfless concerns amidst both categories (p < 0.05). There lacked a statistically notable difference in the occurrence of PTSD between the 2 groups. Data was analyzed for factors associated with PTSD, and the results showed that psychological resilience, job risk, and stress in the workplace were risk factors for PTSD. Additionally, the results of the logistic regression analysis showed that psychological resilience was a significant shared risk factor for PTSD in HCWs after the COVID-19 pandemic. Conclusions: The 2-year follow-up showed no statistical difference in the incidence of PTSD between the HHCW group and the LHCW group. Workplace stress, occupational hazards, and psychological resilience were the major contributing risk factors for PTSD in HCWs.

Opis:
Objective: One of the practical models for assessment of stressful working conditions due to job strain is "job demand and control" or Karasek's job strain model. This model explains how adverse physical and psychological effects including cardiovascular disease risk factors can be established due to high work demand. The aim was to investigate how certain cardiovascular risk factors including body mass index (BMI), heart rate, blood pressure, serum total cholesterol levels, and cigarette smoking are associated with job demand and control in workers. Materials and Methods: In this cohort study, 500 subjects completed "job demand and control" questionnaires. Factor analysis method was used in order to specify the most important "job demand and control" questions. Health check-up records of the workers were applied to extract data about cardiovascular disease risk factors. Ultimately, hypothesis testing, based on Eta, was used to assess the relationship between separated working groups and cardiovascular risk factors (hypertension and serum total cholesterol level). Results: A significant relationship was found between the job demand-control model and cardiovascular risk factors. In terms of chisquared test results, the highest value was assessed for heart rate (Chi² = 145.078). The corresponding results for smoking and BMI were Chi² = 85.652 and Chi² = 30.941, respectively. Subsequently, Eta result for total cholesterol was 0.469, followed by hypertension equaling 0.684. Moreover, there was a significant difference between cardiovascular risk factors and job demand-control profiles among different working groups including the operational group, repairing group and servicing group. Conclusion: Job control and demand are significantly related to heart disease risk factors including hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and cigarette smoking.

Purpose: The main objective of the research was to identify the structure and level of psychosocial risk experienced by transport workers and the relation between occupational stress and the decision to leave the job. Methodology: The research on psychosocial risks at work and their impact on job-related decisions was conducted with the Psychosocial Risk Scale (SRP), a scientifically verified diagnostic tool characterized by high reliability and accuracy of coefficients. The scale consists of four parts, A, B, C, and D. Part A concerns demographic data (such as age, gender, seniority, position, etc.). Part B contains questions related to health and professional functioning. Part C consists of 50 statements related to characteristics of work that pose potential psychosocial risks. Annex D-SRP for the transport sector contains 12 questions (α-Cronbach factor = 0.80). Psychometric properties of parts B and C of the Psychosocial Risk Scale were determined on the basis of the survey results. Results: The psychosocial risk categories considered were workload, job content, work schedule, control, environment and equipment, organizational culture and function, interpersonal relationships, career development, and work-life interface. The mediating effect of job satisfaction was also considered to provide a holistic perception of the analyzed problem. Job satisfaction was analyzed in job content, work conditions and organization, financial conditions, career development, and interpersonal relations with superiors and co-workers. Based on research results, authors identified and characterized the impact of psychosocial risk on transport workers' job-related decisions. Theoretical contribution: The research links social sciences, psychology, and management studies exploring the links between occupational stress and HR management implications, filling in a research gap between occupational stress and logistics management and creating new gaps and research questions as conclusions from research open following research fields and opportunities in the context of research on sustainable development of enterprises. It adds a new perspective to transport management, proving that risk resulting from job characteristics and organization can compromise the availability of workers and the quality of processes performed. Practical implications: The research results can be used by HR managers and workload planners to minimize the occupational stress experienced and improve the well-being and performance of transport workers.

Objectives Job characteristics and the consequences of everyday stress among radio journalists who are not exposed to traumatic events have not been studied sufficiently before. We aimed at determining the most common job characteristics and their stressfulness; relationships between stress exposure, health and occupational functioning; differences between radio journalists and other journalists, and also the psychosocial risk for health and functioning in this group. Material and Methods The studied group involved 208 journalists, 134 of whom worked in radio stations. The respondents filled in the Psychosocial Risks Scale (PRS) developed by the Department of Health and Work Psychology of the Nofer Institute of Occupational Medicine, Łódź, Poland. Results Requirement of mental effort and readiness to response quickly for most of the time as well as limited possibilities for promotion were the most frequent journalists’ complaints. We confirmed that higher levels of stress resulted in worse functioning – the radio journalists who experienced lower stress assessed their health status and ability to work better, were more satisfied with particular aspects of their work, and were more involved in their work. They also presented a significantly lower turnover intention. Moreover, the radio journalists were more involved in their work than other journalists, but experienced lower satisfaction, took more sick leaves and had more days of absence. Conclusions Well-known relationships between stress level, satisfaction and occupational functioning were confirmed. The most important conclusion refers to the fact that psychosocial risks and stress analysis should be based on the understanding of specificity of each occupation or even position. It is so, because the same job characteristic may pose a challenge for one person, while for another – it can result in extreme discomfort and anxiety – such an attitude broadens understanding of the phenomenon. We also confirmed that the PRS is a well-designed method, appropriate to investigate an individual perception of job environment and its stressfulness. Future research on causal relationships between the variables is recommended.

Opis:
The purpose of the study was to determine the relation between overtime, job strain and life style, and cardiovascular risk (CVR) in 97 managers and 98 physical workers. CVR was measured with the Framingham method. Information about job strain, overtime, life style and extra-occupational activities was obtained with a self-administered questionnaire. The results showed that both groups had a similar, medium-level job stress. Being a manager and having extra-occupational activities (self-education) were significantly related with CVR (p = .000, p = .035, respectively), whereas other factors that were analysed (i.e., physical work and overtime) were not. The managers were older than the physical workers; that may be why the factor of being a manager was significantly related to CVR. The extra-occupational activities connected with improving workersʼ skills may play an important role in the development of workersʼ overload and an increase in CVR.

Objectives This paper presents the results of research on the scale of psychosocial risks among miners. A comparative analysis was made, comparing the research results with the data obtained from workers in the following industries: metal, energy, chemical and construction – along with an indication of the relationship between stressful working conditions and the occupational functioning of the respondents. Material and Methods The study involved 483 adults employed in mines in Poland. The study on psychosocial risks in the workplace was performed using Psychosocial Risk Scale, developed by the Department of Health and Work Psychology of the Nofer Institute of Occupational Medicine, Łódź, Poland. Psychosocial Risk Scale is the scientifically validated diagnostic tool and is characterized by high reliability and validity of coefficients. Results The analysis of differences in occupational functioning between miners and other workers in heavy industry provides that miners are in general more healthy, less stressed, more positive emotionally and normatively committed to work, more satisfied with work, and more stable in the employment (as opposite to turnover intention) than the other workers. The results suggest that miners with a lower level of stress functioned at work better – they evaluated their health and ability to work better than miners with a higher level of stress. Their intention to change a job was lower than among those experiencing more stress. The most pronounced effect was observed for the influence on this dimension of functioning by job context risks (the higher level of probability, and the higher t-test value). Conclusions Occupational functioning of miners in Poland is better than the other employees in heavy industry. The analysis of differences in occupational functioning dimensions provides that a lower level of psychosocial risk in a workplace is connected with a higher level of job satisfaction, positive affective and normative work commitment and a lower level of turnover intension.

Objectives: Sense of coherence (SOC) is an individual characteristic related to a positive life orientation, leading to effective coping. Little is known about the relationship between SOC and metabolic syndrome (MetS). This cross-sectional study aimed at testing the hypothesis that workers with a strong SOC have fewer atherosclerotic risk factors, including MetS, and healthier lifestyle behaviors. Material and Methods: One hundred and sixty-seven computer software workers aged 20–64 years underwent a periodical health examination including assessment of body mass index, waist circumference, blood pressure, blood lipid levels, fasting blood sugar (FBS) levels and lifestyle behaviors (walking duration, smoking status, nutrition, alcohol consumption, and sleep duration). During this period, the participants also completed a 29-item questionnaire of SOC and the Brief Job Stress Questionnaire to assess job stressors such as job strain and workplace social support. Results: Our results showed that the participants with a stronger SOC were likely to walk for at least 1 h a day, to eat slowly or at a moderate speed, and to sleep for at least 6 h. Compared with the participants with the weakest SOC, those with the strongest SOC had a significantly lower odds ratio (OR) for being overweight (OR = 0.31; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.11–0.81), and having higher FBS levels (OR = 0.11; 95% CI: 0.02–0.54), dyslipidemia (OR = 0.29; 95% CI: 0.09–0.84), and MetS (OR = 0.12; 95% CI: 0.02–0.63), even after adjusting for age, gender and job stressors. Conclusions: High SOC is associated with a healthy lifestyle and fewer atherosclerotic risk factors, including MetS.

The objectives of this study were to examine the agreement between 5 ergonomic risk assessment methods calculated on the basis of quantitative exposure measures and to examine the ability of the methods to correctly classify 4 at risk jobs. Surface electromyography and electrogoniometry were used to record the physical exposures of 87 sawmill workers performing 4 repetitive jobs. Five ergonomic risk assessment tools (rapid upper limb assessment [RULA], rapid entire body assessment [REBA], American conference of governmental industrial hygienist’s threshold limit value for mono-task hand work [ACGIH TLV], strain index [SI], and concise exposure index [OCRA]) were calculated. Dichotomization of risk to no risk and at risk resulted in high agreement between methods. Percentage of perfect agreement between methods when 3 levels of risk were considered was moderate and varied by job. Of the methods examined, the RULA and SI were best (correct classification rates of 99 and 97% respectively). The quantitative ACGIH-TLV for mono-task hand work and Borg scale were worst (misclassification rates of 86 and 28% respectively).

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.

Wstęp: Celem niniejszego badania była ocena rozpowszechnienia czynników ryzyka chorób sercowo-naczyniowych wśród uczestników Programu Profilaktyki i Wczesnego Wykrywania Chorób Układu Krążenia, z uwzględnieniem charakteru wykonywanej przez nich pracy, oraz ocena prawdopodobieństwa wystąpienia pozytywnych zmian w zakresie wybranych czynników ryzyka po 3 latach od rozpoczęcia programu. Materiał i metody: Dwukrotną obserwacją w odstępie 3 lat (w latach 2006–2008 i 2009–2011) objęto 393 uczestników Programu, u których wykonano pomiar ciśnienia tętniczego krwi, lipidogram, oznaczono stężenie glukozy na czczo i przeprowadzono pomiary antropometryczne. Badani wypełniali kwestionariusz dotyczący ich sytuacji społeczno-ekonomicznej, zachowań zdrowotnych i stanu zdrowia. Uzyskane wyniki poddano analizie statystycznej z zastosowaniem metod oceny zależności za pomocą testu niezależności Chi2 oraz metod regresji logistycznej. Wyniki: Wykazano zależność między charakterem pracy a wysokością ciśnienia tętniczego krwi, zaburzeniami lipidowymi i częstością występowania cukrzycy. Stwierdzono, że czynniki ryzyka chorób układu krążenia (nadciśnienie tętnicze, podwyższony cholesterol całkowity, podwyższone stężenie trójglicerydów, podwyższone stężenie glukozy na czczo, cukrzyca, nadwaga, otyłość) częściej występują u pracowników fizycznych niż u pracowników umysłowych. W 3-letniej obserwacji u pracowników umysłowych częściej odnotowywano większą szansę pozytywnych zmian stężenia cholesterolu całkowitego (OR = 2,90), trójglicerydów (OR = 2,91), glukozy na czczo (OR = 3,11) i wskaźnika masy ciała (OR = 2,56). Wnioski: Przeprowadzona ocena wskazała na gorszą sytuację pracowników fizycznych dotyczącą rozpowszechnienia czynników ryzyka chorób sercowo-naczyniowych wśród uczestników Programu Profilaktyki i Wczesnego Wykrywania Chorób Układu Krążenia. Prawdopodobieństwo wystąpienia pozytywnych zmian w zakresie wybranych czynników ryzyka w zależności od wykonywanej pracy ocenione po 3 latach od rozpoczęcia programu prewencji okazało się wyższe wśród pracowników umysłowych niż fizycznych.

Background: The paper aims to assess the prevalence of CVD risk factors taking into account the job type among CVD Prevention and Early Detection Program participants and to assess the likelihood of positive changes. Materials and methods: A group of 393 Program participants was the subject of our observation twice (2006-2008, and 2009-2011). The study subjects had their arterial blood pressure measured. We also analysed the concentration of lipids and glucose before breakfast and anthropometric measurements. Moreover, we used a survey questionnaire about the socio-economic situation of the study subjects, their health behaviors and status. The obtained results were subjected to a statistical treatment, including the Chi2 independence test and logistic regression. Results: Our study confirmed an association between the job type and arterial blood pressure, lipid disorders and prevalence of diabetes. Blue-collar workers suffered more often from CVD risk factors (arterial hypertension, high total cholesterol, high triglycerides, high glucose level before breakfast, diabetes, overweight, obesity) than their white-collar colleagues. A 3-year observation showed a higher chance for positive changes in total cholesterol (OR = 2.90), triglycerides (OR = 2.91), glucose before breakfast (OR = 3.11) and body mass index (OR = 2.56) among white-collar workers. Conclusions: The assessment of the prevalence of CVD risk factors indicated a worse situation among blue-collar workers. We estimated the likelihood of positive changes three years after the launch of the prevention program. It turned out to be higher among white-collar workers. Med Pr 2013;64(3):307–315

Objectives This study aimed at investigating cross-sectional relationships between psychosocial characteristics of work and presenteeism in a sample of Belgian middle-aged workers. Material and Methods Data were collected from 1372 male and 1611 female workers in the Belstress III study. Psychosocial characteristics assessed by the use of self-administered questionnaires were: job demands, job control, social support, efforts, rewards, bullying, home-to-work conflict and work-to-home conflict. Presenteeism was measured using a single item question, and it was defined as going to work despite illness at least 2 times in the preceding year. Logistic regression models were used to investigate the relationship between psychosocial characteristics and presenteeism, while adjusting for several socio-demographic, health-related variables and neuroticism. An additional analysis in a subgroup of workers with good self-rated health and low neuroticism was conducted. Results The prevalence of presenteeism was 50.6%. Overall results, adjusted for major confounders, revealed that high job demands, high efforts, low support and low rewards were associated with presenteeism. Furthermore, a significant association could be observed for both bullying and work-to-home conflict in relation to presenteeism. The subgroup analysis on a selection of workers with good self-rated health and low neuroticism generally confirmed these results. Conclusions Both job content related factors as well as work contextual psychosocial factors were significantly related to presenteeism. These results suggest that presenteeism is not purely driven by the health status of a worker, but that psychosocial work characteristics also play a role.

Opis:
Funkcjonowanie firmy w dzisiejszej gospodarce oznacza konieczność mierzenia się z nowymi wyzwaniami, które niesie postęp cywilizacyjny i gospodarczy. Aby im sprostać firmy powinny odpowiednio kształtować swoje systemy zarządzania pracownikami. Obecnie zarządzanie zasobami ludzkimi zawiera w sobie istotny potencjał ryzyka, którego nie można w żaden sposób uniknąć. Natomiast, w dobie permanentnych zmian, odpowiednie jego wykorzystanie może stymulować szybszy i efektywniejszy rozwój firm w Polsce. Umiejętność zarządzania ryzykiem personalnym, połączona z racjonalną skłonnością do ryzykownych przedsięwzięć i podejmowania strategicznych decyzji, może przyczynić się do efektywniejszego sprostania wyzwaniom stawianym firmom na najbliższe lata. Niniejsze rozważania mają na celu ukazanie roli satysfakcji z pracy w kontekście ryzyka personalnego oraz wyzwań stawianych małym i średnim przedsiębiorstwom w Polsce. Znajomość istoty satysfakcji z pracy, jej wpływu na postawy pracowników wobec miejsca pracy, struktury czynników ją kształtujących oraz odpowiednie działania przedsiębiorców uwzględniające tę wiedzę przyczynią się do koniecznego radykalnego wzrostu innowacyjności i atrakcyjności polskich firm z sektora MSP.
Functioning of a company in the today’s economy means the necessity to face new challenges brought by the civilisation and economic progress. In order to cope with them firms should adequately form their employee management systems. At present, human resource management comprises a considerable potential of unavoidable risk. On the other hand, in the era of permanent changes, a relevant use thereof may stimulate a faster and more effective development of companies in Poland. The ability to manage personal risk, combined with a reasonable propensity to ventures and to make strategic decisions, may contribute to a more effective meeting the challenges posed to firms for the years to come. These deliberations are aimed at presentation of the role of job satisfaction in the context of personal risk and challenges posed to small and medium enterprises in Poland. The awareness of the essence of job satisfaction, its impact on employees’ attitudes toward their working places, structure of the factors shaping it as well as relevant measures undertaken by entrepreneurs taking into account that awareness will contribute to the necessary radical growth of innovation and attractiveness of Polish firms from the SME sector.

Opis:
W artykule omawiane są relacje dorosłych ludzi bezdomnych nt. szkoły, zawodu i pracy pochodzące z 33 pogłębionych wywiadów indywidualnych. Mimo pozytywnej oceny zeszłych doświadczeń zawodowych i, nierzadko wymuszonego, niskiego zaangażowania w obowiązki szkolne w młodości, rozmówcy sceptycznie oceniali możliwość udziału w kwalifikacyjnych kursach zawodowych. Dysfunkcje rodziny pochodzenia i jej niski status społeczno-ekonomiczny były wiązane bezpośrednio lub pośrednio z wyborem strategii ucieczkowej od codzienności. Najczęściej rolę mediatora związku dysfunkcji rodziny pochodzenia z niskim zaangażowaniem w obowiązki szkolne i wykluczeniem w szkole pełniło uzależnienie. Jako ograniczenie podjęcia pracy zarobkowej uznawano również niemożność wykonywania ciężkiej pracy fizycznej, co pozostaje w związku z obserwowaną nadreprezentacją mężczyzn z wykształceniem zasadniczym zawodowym pośród ludzi bezdomnych, oferowaniem nieelastycznego czasu pracy przez pracodawców (ang. take it or leave it) oraz silną preferencją samozatrudnienia deklarowaną przez ludzi bezdomnych.
This paper discusses homeless adults’ perceptions of school, occupation, and work from 33 individual in-depth interviews. Despite a positive perception on past employment experiences and often externally forced low involvement in school, the participants of the interviews were sceptical about possible enrolment in occupational courses. Family dysfunctions and the low socioeconomic status of the family of origin were indirectly or directly associated with the adolescent exit strategy. Addiction was most likely to mediate the relationship between family dysfunction and low involvement in school or social exclusion at school. The lost ability to work a physically demanding job limited the employment opportunities, which is in line with the observed overrepresentation of men of vocational education among the homeless, the labour supply in the presence of take-it-or-leave-it regimes, and a strong preference for self-employment over dependent employment reported by the homeless men.
