The purpose of the current study was to investigate the impact of job demands on health and work outcomes among Malaysian workers. We hypothesized that job demands (i.e., emotional demands and physical demands) would predict future work-related burnout and work engagement, in turn affecting sleep problems and job performance (in-role, extra-role). A longitudinal two-wave survey was conducted among Malaysian workers and valid data from 345 participants were analyzed using structural equation modeling. The results revealed that work-related burnout predicts sleep problems while work engagement increased employees' job performance over time. Overall, the current study highlights the importance of specific job demands (i.e., emotional demands and physical demands) that specifically affect health-related behavior and work-related behavior among workers.
本研究旨在探讨工作要求对马来西亚工作者健康和工作结果的影响。我们假设工作要求（即情绪要求和身体要求）将预测未来的工作倦怠和工作投入，进而影响睡眠问题和工作绩效（角色内、角色外）。对马来西亚工作者进行了纵向两波调查，并使用结构方程模型对 345 名参与者的有效数据进行了分析。结果表明，工作倦怠预测睡眠问题，而工作投入随着时间的推移提高了员工的工作绩效。总的来说，本研究强调了特定工作要求（即情绪要求和身体要求）对工作者健康相关行为和工作相关行为的重要性。
