To examine the correlations between long working hours, physical activity, and burnout.
A cross-sectional survey was administered to 1560 full-time employees, who underwent periodic health examinations in the year 2013. The subjects were divided into upper, middle, and lower tertiles according to the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory (CBI) score.
The comparison of the high- and low-burnout groups revealed that long working hours were significantly correlated with burnout in a dose-dependent manner. Long working hours were more significantly associated with burnout among individuals younger than 50 years, females, and physically inactive employees.
Long working hours are correlated with burnout when working over 40 hours per week and is even stronger when working over 60 hours per week. Limiting working hours to 40 weekly may be beneficial for the prevention of burnout. Physical activity helps reduce the risk of burnout.
研究长时间工作、身体活动与职业倦怠之间的相关性。
对1560名全职员工进行了横断面调查,这些员工在2013年接受了定期健康检查。根据哥本哈根职业倦怠量表(CBI)得分将受试者分为上、中、下三分位数组。
高倦怠组和低倦怠组的比较显示,长时间工作与职业倦怠呈显著的剂量依赖性相关。在50岁以下的个体、女性和缺乏身体活动的员工中,长时间工作与职业倦怠的关联更为显著。
每周工作超过40小时时,长时间工作与职业倦怠相关,每周工作超过60小时时这种相关性更强。将工作时间限制在每周40小时可能有助于预防职业倦怠。身体活动有助于降低职业倦怠的风险。
