Work-privacy conflict (WPC) is no longer a rarity but constitutes a societal problem. The objectives of the present study were (1) to investigate the distribution and prevalence of WPC among the employed participants in the Gutenberg Health Study at baseline and (2) to study the dependence of WPC on a broad range of private life and occupational characteristics as well as on psychosocial working conditions.
This analysis is based on a representative, population-based sample of 3,709 employees participating in the Gutenberg Health Study. Descriptive and bivariable analyses were carried out separately for women and men. Distribution and prevalence of WPC were examined according to socio-demographic and occupational characteristics as well as psychosocial working conditions. Further, stepwise selection of Poisson log-linear regression models were performed to determine which socio-demographic and occupational characteristics were most associated with the outcome variable WPC and to obtain adjusted prevalence ratios from the final model. The multivariable analyses were conducted both separately for women and men and with all subjects together in one analysis.
There was a high prevalence of WPC in the present study (27.4 % of the men and 23.0 % of the women reported a high or very high WPC). A variety of factors was associated with WPC, e.g. full-time employment, depression and many of the psychosocial risk factors at work. Also, the multivariable results showed that women were of higher risk for a WPC.
By affecting the individual work life, home life, and the general well-being and health, WPC may lead to detrimental effects in employees, their families, employers, and society as a whole. Therefore, the high prevalence of WPC in our sample should be of concern. Among women, the risk for suffering from WPC was even higher, most likely due to multiple burdens.
工作与隐私冲突（WPC）已不再罕见，而是成为一个社会问题。本研究的目的是：（1）调查古登堡健康研究中在职参与者在基线时WPC的分布和患病率；（2）研究WPC对广泛的私人生活和职业特征以及心理社会工作条件的依赖性。
本分析基于参与古登堡健康研究的3709名员工的具有代表性的基于人群的样本。对女性和男性分别进行描述性和双变量分析。根据社会人口学和职业特征以及心理社会工作条件检查WPC的分布和患病率。此外，进行泊松对数线性回归模型的逐步选择，以确定哪些社会人口学和职业特征与结果变量WPC最相关，并从最终模型中获得调整后的患病率比。多变量分析分别针对女性和男性进行，也将所有受试者合并在一次分析中进行。
本研究中WPC的患病率很高（27.4%的男性和23.0%的女性报告有高或非常高的WPC）。多种因素与WPC相关，例如全职工作、抑郁症以及工作中的许多心理社会风险因素。此外，多变量结果表明女性患WPC的风险更高。
WPC通过影响个人的工作生活、家庭生活以及总体幸福感和健康，可能会对员工、他们的家庭、雇主以及整个社会产生不利影响。因此，我们样本中WPC的高患病率应引起关注。在女性中，患WPC的风险甚至更高，很可能是由于多重负担。
