Working condition surveys are widely recognized as useful tools for monitoring the quality of working life and the improvements introduced by health and safety policy frameworks at the European and national level. The Italian Workers' Compensation Authority carried out a national survey (Insula) to investigate the employer's perceptions related to working conditions and their impact on health.
The present study is based on the data collected from the Italian survey on health and safety at work (INSULA) conducted on a representative sample of the Italian workforce ( = 8,000). This focuses on the relationship between psychosocial risk factors and self-reported health using a set of logistic and linear regression models.
Working conditions such as managerial support, job satisfaction, and role act as protective factors on mental and physical health. On the contrary, workers' risk perceptions related to personal exposure to occupational safety and health risks, concern about health conditions, and work-related stress risk exposure determine a poorer state of health.
This study highlights the link between working conditions and self-report health, and this aims to provide a contribution in the field of health at work. Findings show that working conditions must be object of specific preventive measures to improve the workers' health and well-being.
工作条件调查被广泛认为是监测工作生活质量以及欧洲和国家层面健康与安全政策框架所带来改进的有用工具。意大利工人赔偿管理局开展了一项全国性调查(Insula),以调查雇主对工作条件及其对健康影响的看法。
本研究基于对意大利劳动力代表性样本(n = 8000)进行的意大利工作场所健康与安全调查(INSULA)所收集的数据。本研究使用一组逻辑回归和线性回归模型,重点关注心理社会风险因素与自我报告的健康之间的关系。
诸如管理支持、工作满意度和角色等工作条件对身心健康起到保护作用。相反,工人对个人暴露于职业安全与健康风险的风险认知、对健康状况的担忧以及与工作相关的压力风险暴露会导致健康状况较差。
本研究强调了工作条件与自我报告健康之间的联系,旨在为工作场所健康领域做出贡献。研究结果表明,工作条件必须成为改善工人健康和福祉的具体预防措施的对象。
