BACKGROUND
The objective of this study was to determine the factors associated with sun exposure behaviors among Operating Engineers (heavy equipment operators).
METHODS
Operating Engineers (N = 498) were asked to complete a cross-sectional survey. Linear and logistic regression analyses were used to determine health behavioral, perceptional, and demographic factors associated with sun exposure behavior (sun burns, blistering, use of sunscreen, and interest in sun protection services).
RESULTS
Almost half reported two or more sunburns/summer and the median times blistering was 2 with a range of 0-100. About one-third never used sun block, while just over one-third rarely used sun block. Almost one-quarter were interested in sun protection guidance. Multivariate analyses showed that perceptions of skin type, alcohol problems, fruit intake, BMI, sleep quality, age, sex, and race were significantly associated with at least one of the outcome variables (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
Operating Engineers are at high risk for skin cancer due to high rates of exposure to ultraviolet light and low rates of sun block use. Subgroups of Operating Engineers are particularly at risk for sun damage. Interventions are needed to decrease sun exposure among Operating Engineers.
背景
本研究旨在确定与操作工程师（重型设备操作员）日晒行为相关的因素。
方法
要求操作工程师（N=498）完成一项横断面调查。线性和逻辑回归分析用于确定与日晒行为（晒伤、起疱、使用防晒霜和对防晒服务的兴趣）相关的健康行为、感知和人口统计学因素。
结果
近一半的人报告说在两个或更多的晒伤/夏季，中位数起疱时间为 2，范围为 0-100。大约三分之一的人从不使用防晒霜，而略多于三分之一的人很少使用防晒霜。近四分之一的人对防晒指导感兴趣。多变量分析显示，皮肤类型、酒精问题、水果摄入量、BMI、睡眠质量、年龄、性别和种族的看法与至少一个结果变量显著相关（P<0.05）。
结论
由于暴露在紫外线下的频率高和防晒霜使用率低，操作工程师患皮肤癌的风险很高。操作工程师的某些亚组特别容易受到阳光伤害。需要采取干预措施来减少操作工程师的日晒。
