Self-perceived health is an important indicator of occupational health. This research explored the relationship between poor self-perceived health and exposure to psychosocial risk factors, taking into account potential socio-demographic, occupational, and employment determinants. Using data from the First Survey of Occupational Safety and Health Conditions, covering 1049 salaried workers in Guayaquil, Ecuador, descriptive and stratified binary logistic regression analyses (odds ratios with corresponding 95% confidence intervals) were carried out. A significant relationship was found between exposure to psychosocial risk factors and the probability of presenting poor self-perceived health by socio-demographic, occupational, and employment characteristics. Occupational exposure factors to psychosocial risks were predictors of self-perceived ill health and were related to the variables analyzed; the most frequently expressed factors among the respondents were cognitive demands (DCOG) and job insecurity (IL). The results have implications in terms of designing effective workplace interventions pursuant to ensuring the health and well-being of employees.
自我感知健康是职业健康的一个重要指标。本研究探讨了自我感知健康状况不佳与接触心理社会风险因素之间的关系，同时考虑了潜在的社会人口学、职业和就业决定因素。利用厄瓜多尔瓜亚基尔首次职业安全与健康状况调查的数据，对 1049 名受薪工人进行了描述性和分层二项逻辑回归分析（比值比及其相应的 95%置信区间）。结果发现，自我感知健康状况不佳与社会人口学、职业和就业特征方面接触心理社会风险因素之间存在显著关系。职业暴露于心理社会风险因素是自我感知健康不良的预测因素，与所分析的变量有关；受访者中最常表达的因素是认知需求（DCOG）和工作不安全感（IL）。这些结果对于设计有效的工作场所干预措施具有重要意义，以确保员工的健康和福祉。
