“…This aspect is relevant because there is a dearth of research regarding fitness as a resilience resource among individuals with multiple risk factors. Sleep was selected as an additional risk factor because it emerged in previous research that there is a close relationship between stress and sleep among police officers 19) and because physical exercise is positively associated with quality of sleep 20) . The following eight hypotheses will be investigated in the present study.…”

Perceived Fitness Protects against Stress‐based Mental Health Impairments among Police Officers Who Report Good Sleep: Markus GERBER, et al. Institute of Exercise and Health Sciences, University of Basel, Switzerland— Objectives This study examined a cognitive stress‐moderation model that posits that the harmful effects of chronic stress are decreased in police officers who perceive high levels of physical fitness. It also determined whether the stress‐buffering effect of perceived fitness is influenced by officers' self‐reported sleep. Methods A total of 460 police officers (n=116 females, n=344 males, mean age: M=40.7; SD=9.7) rated their physical fitness and completed a battery of self‐report stress, mental health, and sleep questionnaires. Three‐way analyses of covariance were performed to examine whether officers' self‐reported mental health status depends on the interaction between stress, perceived fitness and sleep. Results Highly stressed officers perceived lower mental health and fitness and were overrepresented in the group of poor sleepers. Officers with high fitness self‐reports revealed increased mental health and reported good sleep. In contrast, poor sleepers scored lower on the mental health index. High stress was more closely related to low mental health among poor sleepers. Most importantly, perceived fitness revealed a stress‐buffering effect, but only among officers who reported good sleep. Conclusions High perceived fitness and good sleep operate as stress resilience resources among police officers. The findings suggest that multimodal programs including stress management, sleep hygiene and fitness training are essential components of workplace health promotion in the police force.

“…Евентуални недостаци оваквог система рада јесу: повећана могућност умора, смањење способности запослених и повећан ризик од повреда (Baulk et al 2009). Истраживачи претпостављају да дуге смјене могу довести до изолације и недостатка комуникације између запослених и надређених (Gerber et al, 2010). Такође, број слободних дана у 12-часовном систему смjена омогућава запосленима да раде и неки други додатни посао, што може довести до умора и треба се узети у обзир приликом анализе утицаја оваквог смjенског распореда (Smith еt al., 1998).…”

Апстракт: У овом раду је представљен проблем распоређивања полицајаца полицијске станице у Републици Српској. Сврха овог рада је да се развије методологија за одређивање оптималног распореда полицајаца у складу са начином и организацијом рада. Проблем је дефинисан као проблем циљног програмирања за који је развијен математички модел мјешовитог цјелобројног програмирања. Развијени математички модел може да се примијени у распоређивању полицајаца у полицијским станицама које имају исту или сличну организацију рада. Студија указује на то да је одређивање мјесечних распореда полицајаца сложен и захтјеван проблем који се углавном обавља без помоћи софтвера, а да се може значајно олакшати увођењем оваквог приступа. У раду су приказани и утицаји смјенског рада на полицајце, као и различити начини смјенског рада у полицијским станицама.Кључне ријечи: Рад у смјенама, распоређивање полицајаца, циљно програмирање УВОД Проблем рада полицајаца по смjенама са аспекта ергономије и ефикасности рада је широко разматран у литератури.

“…For instant, Özdemir [24] found that night shift condition leads the workers to experience the occupational stress. Moreover, Gerber [25] concluded that "Shift work was associated with increased social stress. The contradiction of outcomes could be due to not proportion in number of day and night shift workers in this study, however, the number of the workers in night shift signally decreased and was not sufficient to compare with day shift.…”

ABSTRACT:In palm oil mills the environmental sound level, resulting from operating machineries, is usually exceeding the action level of noise (85dB(A)). Whereas the excessive noise can develop chronic job stress, thus this study aims to determine the relationship between personal noise exposure and occupational stress among palm oil mill workers. A cross sectional study was done among 173 workers at five selected mills namely in Perak, Selangor and Negeri Sembilan. Environmental noise and personal noise exposure measured using Sound Level Meter (Model: Lutron SL-4112) and Dosimeter (Model: wireless110A) respectively. Alpha-amylase activity was used to determine the non-auditory effects of noise through determining the stress level. Results showed that, 100% of the workers among exposed group (PNE≥85 dB (A)) experiencing stress condition while 43% of non-exposed group (PNE<85dB (A)) experiencing stress condition. Statistically alpha amylase activity in stimulated condition among exposed group was significantly higher than non-exposed group (t-value=-3.983, p-value=0.000). As the conclusion, there is a significant relationship between alpha amylase activity and personal noise exposure among palm oil mill workers. (rs=0.725, p-value=0.000)
