Abstract

This study examined the fatigue and its association with job stress among male workers engaged in small-scale manufacturing industries. The study subjects were 553 male workers under 50 members of manufacturing industries. The study survey was a structured questionnaire of the Korean Occupational Stress Scale (KOSS) and Multidimensional Fatigue Scale (MFS) during April, 2015. The data were analyzed using the SPSS ver 21.0 program. The results showed that the high risk fatigue group was significantly higher in the high risk group of job stress than in the normal group of job stress. Fatigue was positively correlated with job stress. The odds ratio of the high risk fatigue group were increased significantly in the high risk group of job stress than in the normal group of job stress. The factors of influence with explanatory powers of 27.7% on fatigue included age, marital status, educational level, subject health status, sleeping time, drinking coffee, job tenure, shift work, visiting out-patient department, sense of satisfaction in job life, and job stress. Fatigue was associated with the sociodemographic characteristics, health behavior related characteristics, job-related characteristics, and job stress.

본 연구의 목적은 제조업 남성 근로자들의 직무스트레스 요인과 피로수준과의 관련성을 조사하기 위함이다. 연구대상자는 50인 미만의 소규모 제조업 사업장에서 근무하고 있는 남성 근로자를 553명으로 하였다. 자료 수집은 2015년 4월에 한국인 직무스트레스 측정도구와 한국판 다차원피로척도를 사용한 구조화된 설문지를 이용하여 실시하였으며, 수집된 자료는 SPSS ver 21.0 프로그램을 이용하여 분석하였다. 연구결과, 조사대상자의 피로증상은 직무스트레스가 정상인 군보다 고위험 스트레스군에서 유의하게 높았다. 또한 조사대상자의 피로증상은 직무스트레스와 유의한 양의 상관관계를 보였으며, 직무스트레스가 정상인 군에 비해 고위험 스트레스 군에서 고위험 피로군에 속할 위험비가 유의하게 증가하였다. 또한 피로수준에 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 연령, 결혼상태, 교육수준 및 주관적 건강상태. 수면시간, 커피음용 횟수, 외래진료경험 유무, 직장생활 만족도 및 직무스트레스가 유의한 변수로 선정되었으며 이들의 설명력은 27.7%이었다. 위와 같은 연구결과는 소규모 제조업 남성 근로자들의 피로수준은 인구사회학적 특성, 건강관련행위 특성 및 직업관련 특성뿐만 아니라 직무스트레스 요인과도 유의한 관련성이 있음을 시사하고 있다.
