Abstract

Objective: This study investigated whether workers who practiced unhealthy lifestyles but worked under organizations with insufficient control against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) would pose a synergistic risk of poor self-rated health (SRH).

Methods: A total of 22,637 workers (men, 48.5%) were extracted from an online survey during the COVID-19 pandemic in Japan (December 2020). Multiple logistic regression analyses were performed to estimate adjusted odds ratio (AOR) against poor (poor, fair) SRH.

Results: Accumulation of unhealthy lifestyle behaviors (AOR, 1.49 to 4.40; P < 0.05) and insufficient infection control (AOR, 1.80; P < 0.05) were independently related to poor SRH; however, when these factors were combined, SRH was additively worsened (AOR, 2.14 to 7.72; P < 0.05).

Conclusions: This study highlights that not only unhealthy lifestyle practices but also poor organizational management against infection would worsen workers' SRH during the COVID-19 pandemic.

新冠肺炎大流行期间，工作场所感染控制不足和不健康的生活方式行为与较差的自我评估健康有关。

目的：本研究调查了那些过着不健康生活方式但在2019冠状病毒病（新冠肺炎）控制不足的组织中工作的员工是否会带来自我评估健康不良（SRH）的协同风险。方法：在日本新冠肺炎大流行期间（2020年12月），共有22637名员工（男性，48.5%）从一项在线调查中提取。结果：不良生活方式行为的累积（AOR，1.49～4.40；P<0.05）和感染控制不足（AOR为1.80；P<0.05）与不良SRH独立相关；然而，当这些因素结合在一起时，SRH进一步恶化（AOR，2.14至7.72；P<0.05）。结论：本研究强调，在新冠肺炎大流行期间，不仅不健康的生活方式，而且对感染的组织管理不善都会恶化工人的SRH。
