Presenteeism negatively affects both individuals and society. This study identified factors of presenteeism among workers in South Korea, especially in relation to exposure to adverse social behaviors. Here, an adverse social behavior refers to any forms of workplace violence or intimidation. This study used the data from 23,164 full-time salaried employees, who participated in the fifth Korean Working Conditions Survey. This study attempted to predict presenteeism based on the exposure to adverse social behaviors and working conditions using logistic regression. Presenteeism was reported in 15.9% of the sample. Presenteeism was significantly higher among workers with the following characteristics: females, aged 40 years or older; middle school graduates; over 40 working hours a week; shift workers; no job-related safety information received; exposure to adverse social behavior and discrimination; and those with a high demand for quantitative work, low job autonomy, high emotional demands, and high job stress. The workers exposed to adverse social behavior showed a higher prevalence of presenteeism (41.2%), and low job autonomy was the most significant predictor of presenteeism. The findings of this study suggest that allowing enough autonomy in job-related roles may help alleviate presenteeism among those who have experienced adverse social behavior at work.
职业倦怠会对个人和社会产生负面影响。本研究旨在确定韩国劳动者职业倦怠的影响因素,特别是与他们遭受不良社会行为影响的相关因素。在这里,不良社会行为是指任何形式的工作场所暴力或恐吓。本研究使用了来自 23164 名全职受薪员工的数据,这些员工参加了第五次韩国工作条件调查。本研究试图使用逻辑回归法,根据遭受不良社会行为和工作条件的情况来预测职业倦怠。在样本中,有 15.9%的人报告存在职业倦怠。具有以下特征的劳动者更容易出现职业倦怠:女性,年龄在 40 岁及以上;中学毕业;每周工作超过 40 小时;轮班工作;未收到与工作相关的安全信息;遭受过不良社会行为和歧视;定量工作需求高、工作自主性低、情绪需求高、工作压力大。遭受过不良社会行为的劳动者职业倦怠的患病率更高(41.2%),而工作自主性低是职业倦怠的最显著预测因素。本研究结果表明,在工作中经历过不良社会行为的劳动者,给予其足够的工作自主性,可能有助于减轻职业倦怠。
