To analyze the occupational factors associated with poor sleep quality in correctional officers (COs).
This is a cross-sectional study involving COs who work at four prison facilities in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. Sleep quality was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Logistic and linear regression models were used to calculate the odds ratio (OR) and beta coefficient (β) of poor sleep quality and the corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI), respectively. The analyses were adjusted for the main confounders.
Considering the 256 male COs who participated in the study, 148 (57.8%) had poor sleep quality. In the adjusted analyses, poor sleep quality was associated with higher mental demands (OR = 3.10; 95% CI: 1.40-6.85), having suffered psychological violence at work (OR = 2.13; 95% CI: 1.04-4.35), agreeing with the following statement: "I think about work-related issues in my free time" (OR = 5.13; 95% CI: 1.26-20.78), feeling partially dissatisfied (OR = 2.26; 95% CI: 1.09-4.68) or dissatisfied with work (OR = 4.52; CI: 1.32-15.46) and willingness to find another job (OR = 3.20; 95% CI: 1.53-6.71). The occupational factors dissatisfaction with work (β = 1.02; 95% CI: 0.05-1.98) and having health problems related to the work environment (β = 0.32; 95% CI: 0.24-2.41) were also associated with higher scores on the PSQI.
Poor quality of sleep is a highly frequent health problem among correctional officers, and this condition is associated with the perception of poor working conditions, professional dissatisfaction and the fact that such professionals think about work during their free time.
分析与狱警（COs）睡眠质量差相关的职业因素。
这是一项在巴西圣保罗州的四家监狱设施工作的 COs 的横断面研究。使用匹兹堡睡眠质量指数（PSQI）评估睡眠质量。使用逻辑和线性回归模型计算睡眠质量差的比值比（OR）和β系数（β）及其相应的 95%置信区间（CI）。分析结果针对主要混杂因素进行了调整。
考虑到参与研究的 256 名男性 COs，148 名（57.8%）睡眠质量差。在调整分析中，睡眠质量差与较高的精神需求（OR=3.10；95%CI：1.40-6.85）、在工作中遭受心理暴力（OR=2.13；95%CI：1.04-4.35）、同意以下陈述（OR=5.13；95%CI：1.26-20.78）、感到部分不满意（OR=2.26；95%CI：1.09-4.68）或不满意工作（OR=4.52；CI：1.32-15.46）以及愿意寻找另一份工作（OR=3.20；95%CI：1.53-6.71）相关。职业因素中，对工作的不满（β=1.02；95%CI：0.05-1.98）和与工作环境有关的健康问题（β=0.32；95%CI：0.24-2.41）也与 PSQI 得分较高相关。
睡眠质量差是狱警高度普遍存在的健康问题，这种情况与较差的工作条件感知、职业不满以及此类专业人员在空闲时间考虑工作有关。
