A considerable proportion of sickness absence and disability pension is caused by subjective health complaints, especially low back pain (LBP). In recent years focus has been on psychosocial characteristics of work as potential risk factors. The aim of this study is to examine the relations between psychosocial work aspects and subjective health complaints, LBP, and need for recovery. A total of 779 employees working in home care participated in a cross-sectional study. Higher psychological demands were associated with subjective health complaints and need for recovery. However, decision authority, skill discretion, and the 2 aspects of social support did not seem to be important factors. Higher psychological demands do not seem to be associated with severity of LBP, but does show an association with sick leave.
相当一部分的病假缺勤和残疾抚恤金是由主观健康问题导致的,尤其是腰痛(LBP)。近年来,工作的社会心理特征被视为潜在风险因素。本研究的目的是探讨工作的社会心理方面与主观健康问题、腰痛以及康复需求之间的关系。共有779名从事家庭护理工作的员工参与了一项横断面研究。较高的心理需求与主观健康问题和康复需求相关。然而,决策权、技能自主性以及社会支持的两个方面似乎并不是重要因素。较高的心理需求似乎与腰痛的严重程度无关,但与病假有关。
