Workplace stress measured by Job Stress Survey and relationships to musculoskeletal complaints

Holmström, Stefan January 2008 (has links)
The main purpose of this thesis was to evaluate and test the Job Stress Survey (JSS, Spielberger, 1991; Spielberger & Vagg, 1999), a self-report instrument which assesses workplace stress. In the thesis a thorough evaluation is made of JSS scales and items, and the relations to health, particularly musculoskeletal complaints. The aim of Study I was to evaluate the factor structure and the psychometric properties of a Swedish version of the JSS. The instrument was distributed to medical service personal and metal industry workers (n=1186). Factor analyses demonstrated a good resemblance between the present version and the American original version. The results also showed that the internal consistencies, as well as the test-retest reliabilities of the scales are high, and the concurrent validity are good. Study II examined work-related stress measured by JSS for the subgroups of gender, industry workers and medical service personnel, and special attention was given to the problem of differential item functioning (DIF) on these subgroups. The main findings were that both gender and occupation has a substantial impact on specific sources of work-related stress assessed by JSS scales and individual items. The result of the DIF analyses showed no item bias in the gender subgroup, but for the occupational subgroups there where items showing DIF in two of the scales. These items do not jeopardize the conclusions made on scale level since the number of items showing DIF are too few to make an impact on the overall result on the different scales. In Study III the relation between self-reported stress and health, particularly musculoskeletal problems were examined longitudinally in two metal industry factories. Results showed high levels of stress and musculoskeletal complaints in these factories and significant and strong relationships between the JSS scales and musculoskeletal, as well as psychosocial ratings. Lack of Organizational Support was found to be more related to musculoskeletal pain than Job Pressure. Longitudinal differences were found between the factories and between different types of musculoskeletal complaints. The general conclusions from the studies are that the present version of JSS shows a good resemblance with the American original, and that JSS is a useful instrument for studying relationships between stress and health.

Digital kommunikation i arbetsmiljön : Chefers upplevelser av e-posthantering i arbetet

Olofsson, Anton January 2010 (has links)
Användandet av e-posthantering i arbetet har ökat kraftigt under de senaste årtiondena. Studier har visat att alltför hög grad av informationsflöde kan leda till minskad jobbtillfredsställelse och känslor av stress. Individer i chefsposition har rapporterats vara särskilt drabbade av detta informationsöverflöd och syftet med denna studie var att undersöka avdelningschefers upplevelser av e-posthanteringen i arbetet. En kvalitativ ansats har antagits i studien då verkligheten tolkas på olika sätt och en kvalitativ studies syfte är att förstå ämnet från intervjupersonernas subjektiva perspektiv. Urvalet till denna studie har gjorts strategiskt och valts till att bestå av fem personer; tre män och två kvinnor. Storleksmässigt var antalet intervjuade för få för att göra några könsjämförelser, vilket heller inte ingick i studiens syfte. Intervjupersonerna har valts ut i samspråk med en kontaktperson på den berörda arbetsplatsen. Som datainsamlingsmetod har intervjuer genomförts, med hjälp av en intervjuguide och röstinspelningsutrustning vid samtliga intervjutillfällen. Flera intervjupersoner uppgav att en viss stress gällande e-posten existerade men att de ansåg sig ha både stöd och kunskap att kunna hantera situationen. Som främsta orsak till stress angavs mängden oläst e-post i inkorgen tillsammans med mottagandet av epost innehållandes oväsentlig information för läsaren. Överlag ansåg intervjupersonerna att kunna logga in från andra ställen än arbetsplatsen innebar en möjlighet och att e-posten fyllde en viktig funktion i arbetet. / The usage of e-mail handling has increased during the last decades. Previous studies have shown that too much information may cause loss of job satisfaction and feelings of stress. Managers in particular have reported the most difficulties with this phenomenon called information overload. The aim of this study was to examine departmental managers’ experiences from e-mail handling in their work.  The study has had a qualitative approach due to the individual differences in perceiving. The interviewees were strategically selected in conversation with a contact person at the work place. The selection included three men and two women. No gender comparisons can be made out of such a small selection of interviewees. Data was collected by using interviews, an interview guide and a voice recorder. Several interviewees reported a certain sense of stress in their handling of e-mail but also having the skills and support to manage the situation. The amount of unread messages along with the reception of nonessential mail was reported as the primary causes of stress. The interviewees were mainly satisfied with the possibility of logging in from other places than the work place and believed that e-mail handling was an important function in their daily work.

Exploring the Relationships among Work-Related Stress, Quality of Life, Job Satisfaction, and Anticipated Turnover on Nursing Units with Clinical Nurse Leaders

Kohler, Mary 28 October 2010 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship of the Clinical Nurse Leader (CNL) (AACN) role with the variables of work related stress, quality of life, job satisfaction and anticipated turnover of acute care nurses. Participants included registered nurses (RNs) (N= 94) in Florida recruited from 3 (not for profit) Magnet hospitals in the Tampa Bay Florida area. An ex post facto design was used to test the hypotheses of this study; independent t-tests compared RN’s responses on survey tools measuring work-related stress, quality of life, job satisfaction, and anticipated turnover. Multiple regression analysis was used to examine the interrelationships among these variables. RNs (N=94) completed five survey instruments, including a researcher-developed demographic form. The results of the study showed Aim1 which explored work- related stress did not show any statistical difference between the two groups. Aim 2 which explored job satisfaction and quality of life did not show a difference in the two groups when total scores were analyzed. However, the mental health subscale of the Sf-36(quality of life) was significant ( p=.021), and the general health subscale of the Sf-36 trended toward the CNL group reporting better general health (p=.080). This study revealed that Aim 3 which explored anticipated turnover was statistically significant (p=.047). Standard multiple regression showed a significant relationship existed between CNLs, work related stress and anticipated turnover. The significance of implementation of the CNL role in decreasing turnover through a relationship with these variables may have an important impact on the nursing profession. Specifically, economic implications in reducing turnover that bear further exploration and improving the nursing work environment. This research is the first study to explore the CNL role in relation to these variables.

Pardavimų sektoriuje dirbančių darbuotojų emocinio intelekto, subjektyvaus darbo efektyvumo vertinimo bei darbe patiriamo streso sąsajos / Relationship among sales sector employees emotional intelligence, subjective assessment of work efficiency and work-related stress

Naudžiūnas, Mindaugas 05 June 2014 (has links)
Tyrimo tikslas- ištirti pardavimų sektoriuje dirbančių asmenų emocinį intelektą, patiriamą stresą ir subjektyviai vertinamą darbo atlikimą, surasti šių konstruktų tarpusavio sąsajas, bei sąsajas su sociodemografiniais rodikliais. Tyrime dalyvavo 252 respondentai (237 moterys ir 15 vyrų). Respondentų amžius svyravo nuo 19 iki 59 metų.Tiriamųjų darbo stažas pardavėjo pareigose svyravo nuo 0 iki 32 metų. Tyrime naudotos metodikos: Psichologinės įtampos vertinimo klausimynas(Health and Safety Executive Management Standards Indicator Tool; S. Palmer, C. Cooper, 2007); Emocijų įvertinimo skalė (The Assesing Emotions Scale; Schutte N.S., Malouff J.M., Bhullar N., 2009) ir Darbo efektyvumo skalė (Job performance scale Dubinsky, Mattson, 1979). Tyrimo rezultatai parodė, kad moterys, turinčios mažesnį nei dviejų metų darbo stažą pardavėjo pareigose geriau valdo kitų asmenų emocijas nei tos moterys, kurios yra išdirbusios pardavėjo pareigose daugiau nei dveji metai. Moterys, kurių amžius yra virš 30 metų subjektyviai efektyviau atlieka savo darbą nei tos moterys, kurių amžius yra nuo 19 iki 30 metų. Moterys, turinčios didesnį nei dviejų metų darbo stažą pardavėjo pareigose, patiria mažiau streso darbo vietoje nei tos moterys, kurių darbo stažas pardavėjo pareigose yra iki dviejų metų. Didėjant moterų, dirbančių pardavimo sektoriuje, emociniam intelektui, mažėja jų patiriamas stresas darbo vietoje. Mažėjant moterų, dirbančių pardavimo sektoriuje, darbe patiriamam stresui, didėja jų...

Sjuksköterskors strategier för att hantera arbetsrelaterad stress : En litteraturstudie / Strategies used by registered nurses to manage work related stress : A literature study

Lindberg, Ragnhild, Ölvebo, Mikaela January 2015 (has links)
Bakgrund: Yrkesrelaterad stress har ökat markant under de senaste tio åren. Vårdyrken anses vara bland de arbeten som är mest tyngda av stress. Långvarig stress kan ge individen fysiska såväl som psykiska problem och kan leda till utbrändhet. För att kunna fastställa en god och säker vård krävs stressförebyggande åtgärder, eftersom kraven på sjuksköterskor höjs allt mer. Syfte: Syftet med litteraturstudien var att beskriva sjuksköterskors strategier för att hantera arbetsrelaterad stress. Metod: Litteraturstudie inkluderande nio kvalitativa studier varav en studie som även bestod av kvantitativa resultat, men endast de kvalitativa resultaten behandlades i denna litteraturstudie. Artiklarna analyserades med inspiration av kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Resultat: Två huvudkategorier identifierades; ”Stressreducering på arbetsplatsen” och ”Stressreducering utanför arbetet”. Den första huvudkategorin utgjordes av underkategorierna ”Kollegialt stöd”, ”Prioriteringar”, ”Att påverka sin egen arbetstid”, ”Att distansera sig”, ”Att stärka sig själv” samt ”Tro och andlighet”. Den andra huvudkategorin bestod av underkategorierna ”Att lämna arbetat bakom sig”, ”Fritidsaktiviteter”, ”Sömn” samt ”Tobak och alkohol”. Slutsats: Sjuksköterskor kan ta till flertalet strategier för att reducera stress kortsiktigt. Däremot krävs organisatoriska förändringar på högre nivå för att på lång sikt reducera arbetsstressen hos sjuksköterskor. / Background: Work related stress has increased greatly during the past decade. Healthcare workers are considered having among the most stressful working conditions. Long term stress may cause physical as well as psychological harm on the individual, which may lead to burnout. In order to be able to secure a good and safe healthcare for the patients, it is essential to find long term stress reducing solutions. This is especially important in today’s healthcare, since the demands on the registered nurse are getting even higher. Aim: The aim of this literature study is to describe the strategies used by registered nurses for manage work related stress. Methods: This literature study included nine qualitative articles, of which one also consisted of quantitative results. However, only qualitative results were included in this literature study. All nine articles were analysed with inspiration from qualitative content analysis. Results: Two main categories were identified; ”Stress Reduction at the Workplace” and ”Stress Reduction Outside of the Workplace”. The main category first mentioned consisted of the subcategories “Collegial Support”, “Priorities”, “Influencing One’s Own Working Hours”, “To Distance Oneself”, “To Strengthen Oneself” as well as “Belief and Spirituality”. The second main category consisted of the subcategories “To Leave Work Behind”, “Spare Time Activities”, “Sleep” and also “Tobacco and Alcohol”. Conclusion: Registered nurses may use several strategies in order to reduce stress momentarily. However, organisational changes on a higher level are needed to reduce work related stress in the long term among registered nurses.

Arbetsrelaterad stress : En fallstudie om arbetsrelaterad stress hos ett svenskt fastighetsbolag

Lundstjälk, Frida, Tranehed, Camilla January 2018 (has links)
Work-related stress can be either positive or negative, but the difficulty is to create a balance between demands at work, control at work and social support. High demands at work can both motivate, but at the same time result in excessive workload if the individual does not have enough control and support. In the real estate sector, it is insufficient with studies among work-related stress and by that it is interesting to investigate that sector. The purpose of this study is to examine and get an insight of the work related stress at the real estate company Kungsleden. The study is based on the “Job demand-control-support” model, which explains the relationship between psychological demands at work, control at work and social support and how it affects the stress level. In addition to this, the study also aims to investigate how the management is working with preventing work related stress. To be able to explain the purpose of the study, a method triangulation was conducted, in form of a questionnaire and interviews. The questionnaire received 34 answers and nine interviews were conducted. The result from the questionnaire show that the majority are positively stressed and are experiencing high work demands, high levels of work control and high levels of social support. Furthermore, the interviews presented that the management are actively working to prevent work-related stress at Kungsleden to create a health-promoting workplace. / Arbetsrelaterad stress kan både vara positiv eller negativ, det svåra är att skapa en balans mellan arbetskrav, arbetskontroll och arbetsstöd. Höga arbetskrav inom verksamheten kan både motivera, men samtidigt leda till en för hög arbetsbelastning om individen inte har tillräckligt med kontroll och stöd. Inom fastighetsbranschen är det bristfälligt med studier kring ämnet och därmed är det intressant att undersöka branschen. Syftet med studien blir således att få en insikt i hur den arbetsrelaterade stressen upplevs inom fastighetsbolaget Kungsleden. Studien grundar sig på “Job demand-control-support” modellen som förklarar sambandet mellan arbetskrav, arbetskontroll samt arbetsstöd och hur de påverkar stressnivån. Studien undersöker även hur ledningen på Kungsleden arbetar med det förebyggande arbetet kring arbetsrelaterad stress. För att besvara studiens syfte genomfördes en metodtriangulering, i form av en enkätundersökning och intervjuer. Enkätundersökningen gav 34 stycken enkätsvar och det genomfördes nio stycken intervjuer. Resultatet från enkätundersökningen påvisade att majoriteten är positivt stressade och därmed upplever höga arbetskrav, hög arbetskontroll och högt socialt stöd. Från intervjuerna framgick det att ledningen arbetar aktivt med att förebygga arbetsrelaterad stress på Kungsleden för att skapa en hälsofrämjande arbetsplats.

Universitetslärares upplevelse av arbetsrelaterad stress och återhämtning vid distansarbete

Söderlund, Helena January 2017 (has links)
University teachers' conditions at work have changed and work-related stress increases among academics atuniversities. The aim of this study was to investigate whether university teachers' experience of work-related stress and recovery differed depending on their extent of telework. The study wasan empirical quantitative cross-sectional study where 95 university teachers’ from two universities in Sweden answered a web survey. About half of the university teachers’ telework several times a week and the results show that university teachers' experience of recovery in relation to telework differs, but not their work-related stress. Gender was found to have a small impact on the recovery to telework, but not onwork-related stress. The conclusion is that university teachers’ who telework frequently experience worse recovery than those who rarely telework. The difference in recovery may be because telework makes it more difficult for the university teacher to finish the work compared to they who not telework. / Universitetslärares arbetsförhållanden har förändrats och den arbetsrelaterade stressen ses öka bland akademiker inom universitetet. Arbetsgruppen distansarbetar i olika omfattning vilket kan påverka deras upplevelse av arbetsrelaterad stress och återhämtning.Tidigare forskning gällande distansarbete och upplevelse av arbetsrelaterad stress och återhämtning visar framförallt att distansarbete medför minskad stress. Syftet med studien var att undersöka om universitetslärares upplevelse av arbetsrelaterad stress och återhämtning skiljde sig beroende på i vilken omfattning de distansarbetar. Studien var enempirisk tvärsnittsstudie, med en kvantitativ ansats. Nittiofem stycken universitetslärare från två högskolor besvarade en webenkät varav 46 % distansarbetade flera gånger i veckan. Resultatet visar att universitetslärares upplevelse av återhämtning skilde sig beroende på distansarbetets omfattning, men inte arbetsrelaterad stress. Kön visade sig ha liten påverkan på återhämtningen relaterad till arbetet i relation till distansarbete, men inte på arbetsrelaterad stress. Slutsatsen är att universitetslärare som distansarbetar sällan upplever bättre återhämtning jämfört med de som distansarbetar i större omfattning. Skillnaden i återhämtning kan bero på att distansarbete gör det svårare för universitetsläraren att slutföra och begränsa sitt arbete jämfört med de som inte distansarbetar.

Patientsäkerhet i förhållande till arbetsrelaterad stress för sjuksköterskor : - En litteraturstudie / Patient safety in relation to the nurses’ stressful work situation : – A Literature Review

Garnegård, Agnes, Matsson, Malin January 2018 (has links)
Bakgrund: Arbetsrelaterad stress är ett världsomfattande problem inom hälso- och sjukvården och kan missgynna sjuksköterskornas prestationsförmåga och omvårdnadsarbete. Det finns en obalans mellan sjuksköterskornas resurser och förväntningar från verksamheten vilket är oroväckande för vårdkvaliteten och patientsäkerheten. Syfte: Syftet är att beskriva hur patientsäkerheten påverkas i samband med arbetsrelaterad stress hos sjuksköterskor inom slutenvården. Metod: Studiens design var en litteraturöversikt med 16 inkluderade artiklar från olika delar av världen från databaserna PubMed och CINAHL. Resultat: Bristande kommunikation, försenad eller utebliven omvårdnad och vårdskador, läkemedelskomplikationer samt sjuksköterskans kognitiva försämring framkom som påverkande faktorer för patientsäkerheten relaterat till sjuksköterskans stressiga arbetssituation. Slutsats: Den arbetsrelaterade stressen har en allmänt negativ påverkan på hälso- och sjukvårdens kvalitet och produktivitet. Studiens resultat visar att sjuksköterskornas stressiga arbetssituation påverkar patientsäkerheten och bidrar till en oförmåga att vårda patienterna på ett respektfullt vis utifrån ett helhetsperspektiv. / Background: Work-related stress is a worldwide healthcare problem and may adversely affect the nurses’ performance and nursing work. There is an imbalance between the nurses' resources and the expectations from the healthcare organization, which causes concern among the nurses about the negative effects for quality of care and patient safety. Aim: The aim of this study is to describe how patient safety is affected by the nurses’ work-related stress in inpatient care. Method: The design of this study was a literature review with 16 included articles from different parts of the world from the databases PubMed and CINAHL. Result: Lack of communication, delayed or non-occurred nursing and care-related injuries, drug complications and nurses’ cognitive failure emerged as influencing factors for patient safety related to the nurses’ stressful work situation. Conclusion: The work-related stress has a generally negative impact on the quality and productivity of healthcare. The study's findings show that the stressful work situation of nurses affects patient safety and contributes to the inability to adequately care for patients from a holistic perspective.
