BACKGROUND
Stress is a common work-related problem worldwide. Railway workers are predominantly stressed due to their rigid protocols and limited rest opportunities. This study aimed to determine the level of, and factors associated with, stress among railway workers in Malaysia.
METHODS
A cross-sectional study was conducted among all 729 railway workers employed at Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad (KTMB) in eight states in Malaysia via a postal survey. The self-administered questionnaire consisted of socio-demographic characteristics and the validated Malay version of Perceived Stress Scale-10 (PSS-10). Response rate was 70.4% (513/729).
RESULTS
Mean (SD) age of workers was 41.4 (10.7), with the majority aged 30 years or older (79.3%). Mean (SD) perceived stress was 18.8 (4.3). In multiple linear regression analysis, the significant predictors of high stress were high school versus tertiary education (β = 0.10, 95% CI 0.11, 1.73, = 0.027) and being a white collar worker versus blue collar (β = 0.113, 95% CI 0.10, 1.74, = 0.010).
CONCLUSIONS
Education level and type of work were significantly associated with perceived stress among railway workers in this study.
背景
压力是全球范围内与工作相关的常见问题。铁路工人由于其严格的工作规程和有限的休息机会而主要承受压力。本研究旨在确定马来西亚铁路工人的压力水平及其相关因素。
方法
通过邮政调查对马来西亚八个州的马来西亚国家铁路公司（KTMB）雇用的所有729名铁路工人进行了横断面研究。自我管理的问卷包括社会人口统计学特征和经过验证的马来语版感知压力量表-10（PSS-10）。回复率为70.4%（513/729）。
结果
工人的平均（标准差）年龄为41.4（10.7）岁，大多数年龄在30岁及以上（79.3%）。平均（标准差）感知压力为18.8（4.3）。在多元线性回归分析中，高压力的显著预测因素是高中教育与高等教育相比（β = 0.10，95%置信区间0.11，1.73，P = 0.027）以及白领工人与蓝领工人相比（β = 0.113，95%置信区间0.10，1.74，P = 0.010）。
结论
在本研究中，教育水平和工作类型与铁路工人的感知压力显著相关。
