Abstract
Previous studies related to drinking problems among Korean employees has focused on not 'drinking on the job' but 'drinking off the job'. Thus, little is known about the relationships between 'drinking on the job' and work performance among employees in Korea. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationships between alcohol use including 'drinking on the job' and 'drinking off the job' and work performance among 577 employees working at the health or welfare related agencies in N-gu of Seoul. Analyses were conducted using univariate analyses and multiple regression to examine which alcohol use factors were associated with work performance among employees. As for alcohol use, 49.3% of participants reported 'drinking on the job' in the past 30 days and 48.2% of participants reported 'drinking in a company dinner' in the past 30 days. Univariate analyses on the relationships between alcohol use including 'drinking on the job' and 'drinking off the job' and 'work performance' showed' drinking on the job' was associated with all work performance items except 'being absent' and 'being hurted' were not associated with work performance. Meanwhile, 'drinking off the job' was related to only 'did not do the job well'. Multiple regression analyses demonstrated that gender, subjective health status, service period, and 'drinking on the job'. These findings suggested that there is a need to more concerns about 'drinking on the job', especially 'drinking in a company dinner' among employees in Korea.
