Poor sleep can impact occupational functioning. The current study examines health risks, medical conditions, and workplace economic outcomes associated with self-reported hours of sleep among employees.
Employees of a global financial services corporation were categorized on the basis of their self-reported average hours of sleep. Differences in health care costs, productivity measures, health risks, and medical conditions were analyzed by hours of sleep while controlling for confounding variables.
A strong U-shaped relationship between health care costs, short-term disability, absenteeism, and presenteeism (on-the-job work loss) and the hours of sleep was found among employees. The nadir of the "U" occurs for 7 or 8 hours of sleep per night.
Worksite wellness programs often address health risks and medical conditions and may benefit from incorporating sleep education.
睡眠不佳会影响职业功能。本研究调查了员工自我报告的睡眠时间与健康风险、疾病状况及职场经济后果之间的关系。
一家全球金融服务公司的员工根据其自我报告的平均睡眠时间进行分类。在控制混杂变量的同时，按睡眠时间分析医疗保健成本、生产率指标、健康风险和疾病状况的差异。
员工中发现医疗保健成本、短期残疾、旷工和出勤主义（在职工作损失）与睡眠时间之间呈强烈的U形关系。“U”形曲线的最低点出现在每晚睡眠7或8小时的时候。
工作场所健康计划通常会关注健康风险和疾病状况，纳入睡眠教育可能会使其受益。
