Koreans typically work long hours. We herein analyze the relationship between the level of working hours and extent of stress complaints.
We analyzed stress complaints with respect to hours worked per week, as reported by 7,075 subjects, using data from the 2006 First Korean Working Conditions Survey. Subjects were categorized as those working fewer than 40 hr per week (short working hours, SWH); those working 40-47 hr per week (intermediate working hours, IWH); those working 48-59 hr per week (long working hours, LWH); or those working at least 60 hr per week (very long working hours, VLWH).
Male subjects with IWH had an odds ratio (OR) of 0.74 for stress complaints compared to subjects with SWH (95% CI 0.53-1.04), whereas OR = 0.72 (95% CI 0.52-1.02) for stress complaints among females, comparing IWH and SWH. Males with LWH had OR = 1.15 (95% CI 0.82-1.60) for stress complaints compared to subjects with SWH, whereas the OR for females for stress complaints was 1.11 (95% CI 0.79-1.55). Male subjects with VLWH had OR = 1.72 (95% CI 1.24-2.41) for stress complaints compare to those with SWH, whereas for the female workers the OR was 1.35 (95% CI 0.93-1.98).
Among males, VLWH are associated with a significant increase in stress, compared with SWH.
韩国人通常工作时间较长。我们在此分析工作时间长短与压力投诉程度之间的关系。
我们使用 2006 年第一份韩国工作条件调查的数据，分析了 7075 名受试者每周工作时间与压力投诉之间的关系。受试者分为每周工作少于 40 小时（短工作时间，SWH）；每周工作 40-47 小时（中等工作时间，IWH）；每周工作 48-59 小时（长工作时间，LWH）；或每周工作至少 60 小时（非常长工作时间，VLWH）。
与 SWH 相比，IWH 的男性受试者压力投诉的优势比（OR）为 0.74（95%CI 0.53-1.04），而女性的 OR 为 0.72（95%CI 0.52-1.02）。与 SWH 相比，LWH 的男性受试者压力投诉的 OR 为 1.15（95%CI 0.82-1.60），而女性的 OR 为 1.11（95%CI 0.79-1.55）。与 SWH 相比，VLWH 的男性受试者压力投诉的 OR 为 1.72（95%CI 1.24-2.41），而女性的 OR 为 1.35（95%CI 0.93-1.98）。
与 SWH 相比，VLWH 的男性压力显著增加。
