The aim of this study was to quantify the relationship between workers' body mass index and work productivity within various occupations.
Data from two administrations (2014 and 2015) of the United States (US) National Health and Wellness Survey, an Internet-based survey administered to an adult sample of the US population, were used for this study (n = 59,772). Occupation was based on the US Department of Labor's 2010 Standardized Occupation Codes. Outcomes included work productivity impairment and indirect costs of missed work time.
Obesity had the greatest impact on work productivity in Construction, followed by Arts and Hospitality occupations. Outcomes varied across occupations; multivariable analyses found significant differences in work productivity impairment and indirect costs between normal weight and at least one obesity class.
Obesity differentially impacted productivity and costs, depending upon occupation.
本研究旨在量化不同职业中工人的体重指数与工作生产力之间的关系。
本研究使用了美国（US）国家健康和健康调查（National Health and Wellness Survey）两次调查（2014 年和 2015 年）的数据，这是一项基于互联网的针对美国人口的成人样本调查（n=59772）。职业是基于美国劳工部 2010 年的标准化职业代码。结果包括工作生产力受损和错过工作时间的间接成本。
肥胖对建筑行业的工作生产力影响最大，其次是艺术和酒店业。不同职业的结果有所不同；多变量分析发现，正常体重和至少一个肥胖等级之间在工作生产力受损和间接成本方面存在显著差异。
肥胖对生产力和成本的影响因职业而异。
