Weekly PA was measured using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire. Work-related PA (time spent sitting, standing, walking, and strenuous work per day) and sedentary breaks were measured using a Work-related Physical Activity Questionnaire. Screen usage (television [TV], smartphones, tablets, and personal computers) during leisure time was recorded. The association between PA and LS was examined using a multivariate logistic regression analysis adjusted for age, sex, body mass index, history of musculoskeletal disorders, cancer, stroke, occupation, employment type, work time, shift system, employment status, and body pain.Results: A total of 149 participants had LS. Fewer sedentary breaks during work (>70-minute intervals, odds ratio [OR] = 2.96; prolonged sitting, OR = 4.12) and longer TV viewing time (≥180 minutes, OR = 3.02) were significantly associated with LS. In contrast, moderate PA (OR = 0.75) was significantly associated with a lower risk of LS.Conclusions: Fewer sedentary breaks during work and longer TV viewing time could increase the risk of LS in young and middle-aged Japanese workers.","PeriodicalId":16632,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Occupational Health","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10878362/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139403260","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the association between anemia, which is prevalent among Japanese females, and falls is unclear. Here, we investigated the association between anemia and occupational fall injuries.Methods: Participants were 6780 part-time female employees aged 35-64 working in Japanese supermarket stores of a retail company and who had at least 1 health checkup each year between 2017 and 2022. Anemia was defined as hemoglobin (Hb) <12.0 g/dL (mild: Hb = 11.0-11.9 g/dL, moderate-severe: Hb < 11.0 g/dL). Fall injuries were defined as slips, trips, and falls on the same level, requiring medical attention based on the occupational injury data by the company. Incidence rate ratios (IRRs) for falls were estimated using multilevel Poisson regression, adjusting for age and body mass index.Results: The annual rate of occupational fall injuries was 0.7%. The adjusted IRR for occupational fall injuries among participants with anemia was 1.71 (95% CI, 1.12-2.60). When dividing anemia into 2 groups, IRR was 1.46 (95% CI, 0.84-2.53) for mild anemia and 2.13 (95% CI, 1.18-3.84) for moderate-severe anemia (P for trend = .007).Conclusions: In this observational study of employees of large Japanese supermarket stores, anemia was significantly associated with a higher incidence of occupational falls. Our findings suggest the importance of anemia in the prevention of occupational falls.","PeriodicalId":16632,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Occupational Health","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11635822/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142522183","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Various types of work environment improvements experienced by workers were assessed using a 24-item checklist. Three mental health outcomes (poor mental health, presenteeism, and high psychosocial stress) were assessed and defined using standardized questionnaires.Results: Overall, as the total number of work environment improvements increased, the odds ratio for mental health outcomes in the follow-up survey decreased by several percentage points, even after adjusting for demographic and occupational factors. Analysis of the types of work environment improvements showed that mutual support improvements were particularly effective in reducing mental health issues. The subgroup analyses also showed that the effectiveness of workplace environment improvements might vary between secondary and tertiary industry workers depending on the types of improvements and mental health outcomes.Conclusions: The study suggests that workplace improvements can significantly affect mental health. The effectiveness of these improvements may vary according to the type of intervention, industry of the targeted workers, and mental health outcomes.

The aim of this study was to explore the prevalence and associated factors of elbow WMSDs.Methods: The valid questionnaires of 57501 workers from 15 different industries nationwide were collected and the c2 test and logistic regression analysis were applied to reveal the prevalence and risk factors of elbow WMSDs.Results: The findings indicated that the overall prevalence of elbow WMSDs among workers was 7.3%. However, the prevalence of elbow WMSDs in toy manufacturing was 21.3%, which was significantly higher than that in other industries (P < .05). Logistic regression analysis showed that age 40 and above, married, very poor health, left-handedness, lifting weights (more than 20 kg each time), work requiring upper limb or hand force, work in an uncomfortable position, repetitive operations within 1 minute, using vibrating tools, work involving cold, cool draughts, or temperature changes, work being completed in the same workshop, work being done outdoors, frequent dealings with customers, 2 shifts, often working overtime, staff shortage, and often working for colleagues were risk factors for elbow WMSDs. A higer education level, monthly income, and enough rest time were protective factors for elbow WMSDs.Conclusions: Toy manufacturing is a high-risk industry for elbow WMSDs. Promotion of education about ergonomics should be strengthened, and workers' ergonomics awareness should be improved to reduce the impact of WMSDs.","PeriodicalId":16632,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Occupational Health","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11285782/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141492380","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: This cross-sectional survey employed convenient sampling method to collect data from 7315 long-distance mini and long-bus drivers who operate in Accra and Tema in Ghana cities, to other parts of the country. The bus drivers answered the job content questionnaire, psychosocial safety climate scale (PSC-12), work-family conflict scale and demographic questions on age, education, driving hours and RTC history. Results: The correlational analysis showed a significant association between psychosocial work factors and RTC for the previous two years. Hierarchical multiple linear regression found that supervisor support, skill discretion, decision autonomy, psychological demands, PSC and work-family conflict significantly contributed to explaining RTC among the drivers. Also, significant differences were found between mini-bus and long-bus drivers on driving hours, occurrence of near misses, RTC and all psychosocial work factors explored in this study except work-family conflict. Conclusion: Psychosocial work factors directly predict RTC among mini-bus and long-bus drivers. Policymakers, driver unions, owners and managers of bus transport businesses should prioritise integrating occupational health and safety into road transport activities. Furthermore, managers and bus owners should use bottom-up communication, provide access to support services and work-family balance initiatives, flexible work schedules and a supportive work environment to improve road safety.","PeriodicalId":16632,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Occupational Health","volume":"332 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139152306","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Of the 31,000 male and female respondents, who were Japanese residents aged 15–79 years and were randomly selected from the panel members of an Internet survey company, 4,569 home-based teleworkers were finally included in the analysis; 26,431 respondents who met the exclusion criteria were excluded. The analysis included four cut-offs (≥4, 8, 12, and 16 points) for somatic symptoms on the somatic symptom scale-8 as objective variables, and the telecommuting environment, such as having adequate desk light and a quiet environment as explanatory variables. Adjusted Poisson regression analysis was conducted using demographic variables as covariates.\u0000 Results: The prevalence ratio (PR) for somatic symptoms increased significantly as the number of poor telecommuting conditions increased, regardless of the cut-off value for somatic symptoms or the frequency of teleworking. In the telecommuting environment, the PR for somatic symptoms was significantly higher for the following six items: poor teleworking space to concentrate, inadequate foot space, poor communication environment, poor space for relaxation, noise, and inappropriate temperature and humidity.\u0000 Conclusions: These results suggest that for home-based teleworkers, the more inadequate the telecommuting environment, especially in the aforementioned six areas, the higher the likelihood of somatic symptoms. Improving these environments may be useful in preventing various somatic symptoms.","PeriodicalId":16632,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Occupational Health","volume":" 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138960959","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This has been carried out by multiple reviews, all with slightly different research aims and methodologies. Collating the findings from the available reviews is therefore highly beneficial to establish the experience of homeworking to create recommendations for the future of home-based work.\u0000 Method: An umbrella review was carried out. In June of 2022, literature searches were conducted across four electronic databases. Published reviews of literature which used a systematic process, were focused on working from home populations and detailed factors which could be related to the personal experience of homeworking (e.g., barriers, facilitators, advantages, disadvantages) were included.\u0000 Results: A total of 1,930 records were screened and six review articles were included. Results report on the following sections: working environment (e.g., workplace design, space conditions), personal impact (e.g., satisfaction, career impact), and health (e.g., physical health, wellbeing) including a total of 19 themes. Mixed findings were apparent for nearly all included themes, highlighting the need to consider individual and contextual circumstances when researching working from home.\u0000 Conclusion: This review establishes the importance of retaining flexibility whilst homeworking for employees, managers, and organisations. Essentially, a one-size fits all approach to working from home is impractical as individual circumstances limit application. Eight recommendations for the future of working from home are suggested.","PeriodicalId":16632,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Occupational Health","volume":"38 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138971282","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
