To understand impacts of social, behavioral and physical factors on well-being of office workstation users during COVID-19 work from home (WFH).
A questionnaire was deployed from April 24 to June 11, 2020 and 988 responses were valid. Linear regression, multinomial logistic regression and chi-square tests were used to understand factors associated with overall physical and mental health statuses and number of new physical and mental health issues.
Decreased overall physical and mental well-being after WFH were associated with physical exercise, food intake, communication with coworkers, children at home, distractions while working, adjusted work hours, workstation set-up and satisfaction with workspace indoor environmental factors.
This study highlights factors that impact workers' physical and mental health well-being while WFH and provides a foundation for considering how to best support a positive WFH experience.
了解在 COVID-19 居家办公期间,社会、行为和身体因素对办公工作站用户福祉的影响。
2020 年 4 月 24 日至 6 月 11 日,我们部署了一份问卷,共收到 988 份有效回复。我们使用线性回归、多项逻辑回归和卡方检验来了解与整体身心健康状况以及新出现的身心问题数量相关的因素。
居家办公后整体身心健康状况下降与体育锻炼、食物摄入、与同事的沟通、家中的孩子、工作时的分心、调整后的工作时间、工作站设置以及对工作空间室内环境因素的满意度有关。
本研究强调了在居家办公期间影响员工身心健康的因素,为如何支持积极的居家办公体验提供了基础。
