RESUMEN
BackgroundCompared with absenteeism, health-related productivity loss has a long-lasting negative effect, and poses a greater harm and loss. The health-related productivity loss is mediated by self-efficacy, and perceived social support has been shown to have an impact on health-related productivity loss, whereas the interaction mechanism among the three remains unclear. ObjectiveTo investigate the status of perceived social support, occupational coping self-efficacy and health-related productivity loss among ICU nurses, and to test the mediation role of perceived social support in the relationship between occupational coping self-efficacy and health-related productivity loss. MethodsFrom September to November, 2021, purposive sampling technique was adopted to select 468 ICU nurses in 8 tertiary hospitals in Sichuan Province. Subjects were assessed using self-made general information questionnaire, Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS), Occupational Coping Self Efficacy Scale for Nurses (OCSE-N) and Stanford Presenteeism Scale-6 (SPS-6). Pearson correlation analysis was used to examine the correlation among variables. Amos 24.0 was utilized to test the mediation role of perceived social support in the relationship between occupational coping self-efficacy and health-related productivity loss. ResultsA total of 415 ICU nurses completed the valid questionnaire survey. ICU nurses scored (63.13±11.62) on PSSS, (22.24±6.15) on OCSE-N, and (16.83±4.24) on SPS-6. Health-related productivity loss was detected in 279 ICU nurses (67.23%). Correlation analysis denoted that PSSS total score was positively correlated with OCSE-N total score (r=0.348, P<0.05), and negatively correlated with SPS-6 total score (r=-0.274, P<0.05). OCSE-N total score was negatively correlated with SPS-6 total score (r=-0.421, P<0.05). The direct effect value of occupational coping self-efficacy on health-related productivity loss was -0.401, and perceived social support showed a mediation role in the relationship between occupational coping self-efficacy and health-related productivity loss (the indirect effect value was -0.052, accounting for 11.48% of the total effect). ConclusionThe occupational coping self-efficacy of ICU nurses may affect the health-related productivity loss through the action path of perceived social support.[Funded by Scientific Research Project of Sichuan Provincial Health Commission (number, 19PJ042)]
RESUMEN
Background At present, domestic research on job burnout and health-related productivity is limited to medical workers, and the impact of job burnout on health-related productivity of enterprise staff deserves attention. Objective To explore the association between job burnout and health-related productivity loss among enterprise staff. Methods A cross-sectional online questionnaire survey was conducted among enterprise staff who were selected from seven enterprises in Minhang District of Shanghai. The Chinese version of Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey (MBI-GS) was used to assess job burnout, and a questionnaire based on and modified from the WHO Health and Work Performance Questionnaire was used to assess the loss of health-related productivity. Logistic regression was used to analyze the impact of job burnout on health-related productivity under the control of selected demographic characteristics, socio-economic factors, and occupational factors. Results A total of 3489 questionnaires were recovered, and 3156 valid questionnaires were included in the statistical analysis. Among the 3156 valid questionnaires, 2228 (70.8%) respondents were assessed as suffering from job burnout, in which 1858 (59.0%) were mild to moderate job burnout, and 370 (11.7%) were severe job burnout; the median score (interquartile range) of MBI-GS was 2.18(2.69), the median rates (interquartile range) of absenteeism and presenteeism were 0.00% (0.00%) and 20.00% (50.00%), respectively. The prevalence of presenteeism significantly varied by gender, education, marital status, working years, job category, exhaustion, cynicism, professional efficacy, and job burnout (P<0.05). The prevalence of absenteeism significantly varied by education, marital status, working years, job category, exhaustion, cynicism, professional efficacy, and job burnout (P<0.05). Job burnout was positively correlated with absenteeism (r=0.157) and presenteeism (r=0.412) (P<0.01). After controlling for selected demographic characteristics, social economic factors, and occupational factors, the logistic regression showed that job burnout was associated with health-related productivity loss, the OR value remained relatively stable, and referring to negative job burnout, the OR (95%CI) of severe job burnout was 6.35 (4.52-8.92). Conclusion Job burnout of enterprise staff has a negative impact on health-related productivity. Severer job burnout associates with higher health-related productivity loss. Enterprises should pay attention to the prevention and control of job burnout to reduce health-related productivity loss.
