Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the health behavior and prevalence of chronic disease in 5,638 city workers. Data were analyzed with frequency, percentage, chi-square test, logistic regression analysis. The results showed that the health behaviors of the subjects were high smoking and drinking, low exercise, and the prevalence of chronic diseases was high in obesity and hyperlipemia. The major influencing factors of chronic diseases were age, exercise and drinking. This study suggests that it is necessary to operate a systematic health management program for the desirable health behaviors in the national, local, and industrial fields.
