Abstract

Objective: To detect the prevalence of sleep disorders among metro staff and to analyze influencing effects of effort reward imbalance (ERI) on it. Methods: In January 2015, subway driver, dispatcher and station operator from Guangzhou subway were selected as the research object in the whole group sampling method. A total of 1200 questionnaires were distributed and 1124 were valid questionnaires, and the effective questionnaire recovery rate was 93.7%. Based on the effort reward imbalance questionnaire and the self-administered sleep questionnaire, the data of the general demographic characteristics, life satisfaction, occupational stress and sleep status of the respondents were collected. Epi.data3.1 and spss19.0 were used for analyzing. Results: A total of 1124 subway employees were surveyed, with an average age of (28±5) years; the working age was (4.5±3.6) years. ERI occupied 24.7% (278/1124) of the study population and sleep disorders as 42.2% (474/1124) . Single factor analysis showed that marital status, educational level, work position, life satisfaction and ERI could significantly influence sleep disorders of metro staff (P<0.05) . Logistic regression showed that higher effort (adjusted OR=2.56, 95%CI: 1.79-3.68) , lower reward (adjusted OR=1.90, 95%CI: 1.34-2.68) and ERI (adjusted OR=2.33, 95%CI: 1.69-3.22) could increase the risk of sleep disorders after the confounding factors were controlled. ERI (adjusted OR=2.89, 95% CI: 1.80-4.64) , and over commitment (adjusted OR=4.64, 95%CI: 2.81-7.68) could influence the risk of sleep disorders independently when over commitment was evaluated as a moderating variable. Conclusion: Occupational stress as ERI could influence the risk of sleep disorders among metro staff. The situation should not be neglected for occupational health of metro staff.

目的: 探索地铁员工睡眠障碍现况,分析付出回报失衡(ERI)型职业应激对其睡眠状况的影响效应。 方法: 采取整群抽样方法,于2015年1月抽取广州市地铁司机、调度员与站务员为研究对象。共发放问卷1 200份,回收有效问卷1 124份,有效问卷回收率为93.7%。采用ERI问卷和自我管理睡眠问卷收集地铁员工一般人口学特征、生活满意度、职业应激和睡眠状况等资料。采用EpiData3.1软件进行数据录入,SPSS 19.0进行数据的统计分析。 结果: 共调查地铁员工1 124人,平均年龄为(28±5)岁,工龄为(4.5±3.6)年;ERI型职业应激者比例为24.7%(278/1 124);睡眠障碍474人(42.2%)。单因素分析显示,不同婚姻、教育水平、工作岗位、生活满意度及ERI职业应激对地铁员工睡眠状况的影响差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05)。logistic回归分析显示,控制年龄等变量后,较高工作付出(校正OR=2.56,95%CI:1.79~3.68)、较低工作回报(校正OR=1.90,95%CI:1.34~2.68)及ERI(校正OR=2.33,95% CI:1.69~3.22)地铁员工的睡眠障碍发生风险均明显增加。在引入调节变量内在投入后,ERI(校正OR=2.89,95%CI:1.80~4.64)和内在高投入(校正OR=4.64,95%CI:2.81~7.68)均可独立增加地铁员工睡眠障碍发生风险。 结论: 广州市地铁员工总体睡眠障碍不容忽视,ERI型职业应激及内在高投入可能影响地铁员工睡眠障碍的发生。.
