|
Objective : Korean employees tend to release their stress by alcohol drinking. This study aimed to investigate the association between job stress and problematic drinking in Korean employees.
Methods : The study participants were 72,119 employees who attended health screenings and responded to the Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test?Korea (AUDIT-K), Korean Occupational Stress Scale-Short Form (KOSS-SF), Center for Epidemiologic Study-Depression (CES-D), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) and questionnaire on suicidal ideation and sociodemographic characteristics. We investigated the sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of the problematic drinking group (AUIDT-K≥12) and used binary logistic regression to determine the impact of job stress on problematic drinking.
Results : Age, gender, marital status, education year, sleep duration, obesity, smoking, suicidal ideation, and depression and anxiety showed significant differences between the problematic drinking group and normal group. Among the various kinds of job stresses, job insecurity and lack of reward were associated with problematic drinking.
Conclusion : The result of this study suggested that certain kinds of job stress might be associated with problematic drinking in Korean employees.
