Some occupations have higher alcoholism rates than others. It is unknown whether "high risk" occupations attract problem drinkers or create them through job pressures. One hundred and fifty male manual recruits to Scottish breweries and distilleries were interviewed and compared with similar men in lower risk jobs. The alcohol producers reported poorer employment records and were significantly heavier drinkers than the controls. The alcohol producers were also more likely than the controls to have drunk more since recruitment. These results suggest that the drink trade attracts a disproportionate number of people likely to develop alcohol-related problems and indicates that drinking habits may be strongly influenced by work environment.
一些职业的酗酒率高于其他职业。尚不清楚“高风险”职业是吸引了有饮酒问题的人，还是通过工作压力导致人们酗酒。研究人员对150名苏格兰啤酒厂和酿酒厂的男性体力劳动者新兵进行了访谈，并与从事低风险工作的类似男性进行了比较。从事酒类生产的人就业记录较差，饮酒量也明显高于对照组。与对照组相比，从事酒类生产的人自入职以来饮酒量也增加得更多。这些结果表明，酒类行业吸引了不成比例的可能出现酒精相关问题的人，并且表明饮酒习惯可能受到工作环境的强烈影响。
