This study aimed to identify characteristics of workers experiencing health problems without a decline in labor productivity to address presenteeism. A cross-sectional analysis was conducted on 554 workers in Japan, with a median age of 43 years. Participants reported any health problems in the past month, along with job stressors, stress responses, social support, and job and life satisfaction using the Brief Job Stress Questionnaire. They were categorized into three groups: "no symptoms," "pre-presenteeism" (health problems without work impact), and "presenteeism" (health problems with work impact). Results showed that 30.1% were in "prepresenteeism" and 52.0% in "presenteeism." Stress responses and social support were linked to both "pre-presenteeism" and "presenteeism," while job stressors and job and life satisfaction were only associated with "presenteeism." These findings offer insights for preventing presenteeism.
本研究旨在确定在劳动生产率未下降的情况下出现健康问题的工人的特征,以解决出勤主义问题。对日本的554名工人进行了横断面分析,他们的年龄中位数为43岁。参与者使用简短工作压力问卷报告了过去一个月内的任何健康问题,以及工作压力源、压力反应、社会支持以及工作和生活满意度。他们被分为三组:“无症状”、“出勤主义前期”(有健康问题但未影响工作)和“出勤主义”(有健康问题且影响工作)。结果显示,30.1%的人处于“出勤主义前期”,52.0%的人处于“出勤主义”。压力反应和社会支持与“出勤主义前期”和“出勤主义”均有关联,而工作压力源以及工作和生活满意度仅与“出勤主义”相关。这些发现为预防出勤主义提供了见解。
