To describe if health complaints relate to health behavior in terms of sickness absence (SA) and sickness presence (SP) and to examine how complaints and health behavior predicts the risk for future long-term sickness absence (LTSA).
Data originates from work environment surveys 2001 to 2013 and SA registers 2002 to 2016 of 1838 nurses, 7430 care assistants, and 40,515 individuals in all other occupations. Descriptive and regression analyses were conducted.
Physical complaints and high SA in combination with high SP increased the risk of LTSA among nurses and care assistants. Nurses' high SP and care assistants' high SA elevated the LTSA risk.
Strategies to reduce the reasons behind physical health complaints among health care workers are warranted. SP among nurses and SA among care assistants should be considered in the organization of their job demands.
描述健康抱怨是否与病假(SA)和出勤(SP)方面的健康行为有关,并检验抱怨和健康行为如何预测未来长期病假(LTSA)的风险。
数据来源于 2001 年至 2013 年的工作环境调查和 2002 年至 2016 年的 SA 登记,涉及 1838 名护士、7430 名护理助理和所有其他职业的 40515 人。进行了描述性和回归分析。
身体抱怨和高 SA 与高 SP 相结合会增加护士和护理助理发生 LTSA 的风险。护士的高 SP 和护理助理的高 SA 增加了 LTSA 的风险。
有必要制定策略来减少医疗保健工作者身体抱怨的原因。护士的 SP 和护理助理的 SA 应该在组织他们的工作需求时加以考虑。
