Abstract

This study examined the effects of the symptoms of musculoskeletal disorder and the burden of the body on work stress in a university hospital workers. The research surveyed 679 subjects. The relevant factors affecting the job stress were found to be female, young people age group, unmarried, shift work, work more than 8 hours, short experience workers. The work stress was significantly higher in the non-smoker (p=0.000), regular exercise/sports(p=0.022) and non-drinking(p=0.038) groups. In addition, the mental fatigue, presence of musculoskeletal symptoms, fatigue level, and marital status increase the risk of the work stress. The results showed that the burden of the body and musculoskeletal disorders are related interactively with each other.

본 연구는 일개 대학병원 근무자 679명을 대상으로 신체 부담과 근골격계 증상이 직무 스트레스에 미치는 영향을 파악하였다. 분석 결과 직무스트레스에 영향을 미치는 관련 요인으로는 여성, 저연령층, 미혼, 교대근무자, 8시간 이상 근무자, 근무 경력이 낮은 군이 유의한 변수로 선정되었다. 직무 스트레스 수준은 비흡연(p=0.000), 운동을 하지 않는다(p=0.022) 및 비음주(p=0.038)에서 높았고 통계적으로도 유의한 차이를 보였다. 또한 직무스트레스에 영향을 미치는 관련 변수로 정신적 피로, 근골격계 증상, 피로수준 및 결혼상태가 직무스트레스 위험을 증가시킬 수 있다. 결론적으로 육체적 작업부담과 직무스트레스간의 쌍방향성 상승효과가 있음을 확인하였다.
