“…Using the demand-control (8) and effort-reward imbalance (9) models, it becomes clear that hospital doctors in surgical specialties are highly stressed compared to the German work force in general (12)(13)(14). The mean of the quotients for effort and reward in the overall work force is between 0.5 (12) and 0.6 (13), for primary care physicians about 0.8 (14) and for hospital doctors in surgical specialties about 0.9 ( Table 1).…”

“…When it comes to sociodemographic factors, for example, findings show that older workers have generally more days of sickness absence than younger workers (Donders et al 2012 ; Taimela et al 2007 ). Studies also highlight that patterns and reasons for sickness absence differ between women and men, with levels being generally higher among women—a finding that may be related to differing significance of the work role (Casini et al 2013 ; Krantz and Lundberg 2006 ; Messing et al 2003 ; Siegrist et al 2006 ; Sterud 2014 ). Stressful working conditions are another factor related to sickness absence, mainly because of their health-related consequences.…”

PurposeWe aim to extend current knowledge on associations between stressful work and sickness absence, first, by studying associations between ERI and sickness absence among full-time employees from various occupations, and second, by investigating if associations vary by age.MethodsWe use data from four waves of the German socio-economic panel (GSOEP), collected among men and women between 2006 and 2012, with 9418 observations. Stressful work is measured with a short form of the ERI questionnaire. We investigate an imbalance between effort and reward (ER ratio) as well as the two main components (“high effort” and “low reward”). Sickness absence is measured by self-reported number of sickness days (assessed the following year). After descriptive analyses, we estimate a series of multivariable regressions, including tests for interactions between age and work stress.ResultsEach of the three indicators of stressful work is related to higher number of sickness days, with except of “high effort” in case of men. Findings remain significant after adjusting for social position (income, education and occupational class) and health. In addition, for both men and women, associations were slightly higher among older workers, though interactions did not reach statistical significance.ConclusionOur findings support that stressful work is linked to sickness absence across a wide spectrum of jobs with varying incomes and educational levels, and also that associations are slightly more pronounced among older workers.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1007/s00420-018-1298-3) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

“…The number of children in the household was included as a control variable because caring for children during the pandemic often represents an additional stressor that is associated with lower wellbeing. 3,19,22,[123][124][125] Home demands were assessed using an instrument by Peeters et al 126 that measures three types of private life-related stressors: quantitative, emotional, and mental. Responses are given using a four-point Likert scale ranging from 0 (never) to 3 (always).…”

Objective To analyze the development of conditions at work and health-related variables (notably exhaustion) in Switzerland longitudinally before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods Questionnaire data were collected from a population-based sample of 1,553 employees in February 2020 and one year later. Health and well-being associated with a) working conditions in general and b) COVID-19-specific predictors such as worries about being infected and conditions for working at home were analyzed employing analysis of (co)variance and multiple regression. Results Conditions at work and well-being were stable overall, even indicating slight improvements, notably for men compared to women. Both an index representing stressors and resources at work in general (Job-Stress Index) and a COVID-19-related demand index showed consistent effects on health. Conclusions COVID-19-specific aspects may impact health indicators differently depending on the work context.

Psychosoziale Arbeitbelastungen, Arbeitsunfähigkeit und gesundheitsbezogenes Wohlbefinden: Eine empirische Studie aus der Perspektive der Geschlechterforschung

Abstract: Evidence of this kind can be useful for the purposeful planning and implementation of health promotion measures at work. Women with children would be a group deserving special attention. The findings also point to continuing differences in gender role expectations in the family context.
