Our aim was to examine the associations between work intensity and depressive symptoms among the working population, as well as to identify the impact of physical activity (PA) on these relationships. Spearman correlation analysis was conducted to analyze the correlations among work intensity, PA, and depressive symptoms. Working hours and working days were positively correlated with depressive symptoms ( = 0.108, 0.063; values were <0.001). Regular PA, exercise time, exercise frequency, and exercise years were negatively correlated with depressive symptoms ( = -0.121, -0.124, -0.152, -0.149; all values were <0.001) and working days ( = -0.066, -0.050, -0.069, -0.044; all values were <0.001) working hours ( = -0.113. -0.106, -0.161, -0.123; all values were <0.001). Working days was positively correlated with working hours ( = 0.512, < 0.001). Different levels of PA alleviated the effect of working hours or working days on depressive symptoms. Working hours seemed to be more correlated with depressive symptoms than working days. The results suggest that PA at any level could buffer against the effects of work intensity and might prove a helpful strategy for improving mental health issues among employees.
我们的目的是研究工作人群中工作强度与抑郁症状之间的关联，以及确定体育活动（PA）对这些关系的影响。进行Spearman相关性分析以分析工作强度、PA和抑郁症状之间的相关性。工作时长和工作日数与抑郁症状呈正相关（ = 0.108，0.063； 值均<0.001）。规律的PA、锻炼时间、锻炼频率和锻炼年限与抑郁症状呈负相关（ = -0.121，-0.124，-0.152，-0.149；所有 值均<0.001），与工作日数呈负相关（ = -0.066，-0.050，-0.069，-0.044；所有 值均<0.001），与工作时长呈负相关（ = -0.113，-0.106，-0.161，-0.123；所有 值均<0.001）。工作日数与工作时长呈正相关（ = 0.512， < 0.001）。不同水平的PA减轻了工作时长或工作日数对抑郁症状的影响。工作时长似乎比工作日数与抑郁症状的相关性更强。结果表明，任何水平的PA都可以缓冲工作强度的影响，可能是改善员工心理健康问题的有益策略。
