Many recent reports indicate that public transport employees constitute a group of workers at high risk of going through a traumatic event. Yet, very few scientific data on the impact of these events on this population are available. The authors present results of an epidemiological study conducted among Montreal bus drivers. A little more than a third of bus drivers have reported a traumatic event at work. Among the whole of traumatic events occurring during the course of their work, serious threats and assault constitute the majority of these events. Traumatic events are more frequent at work than in their private lives. The prevalence of PTSD for those exposed to a traumatic event at work is of 10.7% and of 21.3% for those bus drivers exposed to traumatic events in their private lives. Nine out of 100 drivers exposed to a traumatic event at work suffered a PTSD in the month preceding the study. When the authors consider the events occurring in the private lives, almost 15% of those exposed were victims of PTSD. When the two levels of expositions are reunited, 12% of those exposed presented a PTSD in the month preceding the research.
最近许多报告表明，公共交通员工是经历创伤性事件风险较高的一群工人。然而，关于这些事件对该人群影响的科学数据却非常少。作者展示了一项在蒙特利尔公交司机中进行的流行病学研究结果。略多于三分之一的公交司机报告在工作中经历过创伤性事件。在他们工作期间发生的所有创伤性事件中，严重威胁和攻击占了这些事件的大部分。创伤性事件在工作中比在私人生活中更频繁。工作中暴露于创伤性事件的人创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）患病率为10.7%，而在私人生活中暴露于创伤性事件的公交司机患病率为21.3%。在研究前一个月，每100名工作中暴露于创伤性事件的司机中有9人患有创伤后应激障碍。当作者考虑私人生活中发生的事件时，近15%的暴露者是创伤后应激障碍的受害者。当将两种暴露水平合并计算时，12%的暴露者在研究前一个月患有创伤后应激障碍。
