摘要
目的本文旨在就社会心理工作条件和心理健康方面，对远程工作和在雇主处所工作的人员进行比较：采用哥本哈根工作条件调查问卷，对2021-2022年的494名远程办公人员（206人）和固定办公人员（288人）进行纵向研究：混合设计的方差分析结果表明，远程工作者比固定工作者对其工作的某些社会心理条件（如工作情绪要求、隐藏情绪要求、工作控制、角色冲突和对同事的信任）的评估更好。随着时间的推移，远程工作人员的精神健康状况也优于在雇主所在地工作的人员，尤其是在心理压力、抑郁和职业倦怠方面：因此，本研究的结果表明，从改善社会心理工作条件和员工心理健康的角度来看，远程工作可能是一种理想的工作形式，从而可以提高工作人群的生活质量。Int J Occup Med Environ Health.2025;38(2) .
Psychosocial working conditions and mental well-being of remote and stationary employees: a longitudinal study.
Objectives: The aim of the article is to compare people working remotely and people working at the employer's premises in terms of psychosocial working conditions and mental well-being.
Material and methods: A longitudinal study conducted on a group of 494 people working remotely (N = 206) and those working stationary (N = 288) in 2021-2022 using the Copenhagen Working Conditions Questionnaire.
Results: The results of analysis of variance in the mixed design showed that some psychosocial conditions of their work (e.g., emotional work demands, demands for hiding emotions, control at work, role conflict and trust in co-workers) were assessed better by remote workers than by people working stationary. Remote workers also had better mental well-being over time than those working at the employer's premises, especially in relation to psychological strain, depression and burnout.
Conclusions: The results of this study therefore suggest that remote work may be a desirable form of work from the point of view of improving psychosocial working conditions and the mental well-being of employees, and thus increase the quality of life of working people.
