Abstract

This study investigated the relationship between job stress and psychosocial stress among clerical public officers in Daejeon City. The self-administered questionnaire survey was administered to 386, during the period between June 1, 2010 and July 31, 2010. As a results, In terms of various levels of psychosocial stresses, 8.8% of the subjects were healthy group, 64.5% were potential stress group, and 26.7% were high risk stress group. On job specifications, the high risk stress group were significantly higher those with higher level of job demand, lower job autonomy and lower colleagues support than their respective counterparts. The level of psychosocial stress was positively correlated with job demand and negatively correlated with job autonomy and social support. Multiple regression analysis revealed that the factors of influence on psychosocial stresses included subjective status of health, satisfaction in work, smoking, leisure activities, past history of visits to medical clinics, social support from colleagues.

본 연구는 일부 행정 공무원들의 사회심리적 스트레스 수준을 알아보고 직무스트레스 요인과 사회 심리적 스트레스수준과의 관련성을 규명하고자 2010년 6월 1일부터 7월 31일까지의 기간 동안에 대전광역시에 근무하고 있는 일부 행정 공무원을 386명을 대상으로 구조화된 무기명 자기기입식 설문지를 이용한 설문조사를 실시하였다. 연구결과 조사대상자의 사회심리적 스트레스 수준은 건강군 8.8%, 잠재적 스트레스군 64.5%, 고위험스트레스군 26.7%로 나타났으며, 고위험스트레스군의 분포는 업무요구도가 낮은 군보다 높은 군에서, 업무자율성이 높은 군보다 낮은 군에서, 동료의 지지도가 높은 군보다 낮은 군에서 유의하게 높았다. 또한 사회심리적 스트레스는 업무요구도와 유의한 양의 상관관계를 보인 반면, 업무자율성, 상사의 지지도 및 동료의 지지도와는 유의한 음의 상관관계를 보였다. 다중회귀분석 결과 사회심리적 스트레스에 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 주관적인 건강상태, 직장생활에 대한 만족도, 흡연상태, 여가시간유무, 외래진료여부 및 동료의 지지도 등이 유의한 변수로 선정되었다.
