Abstract

Objective: Injured workers can be disadvantaged after a workers' compensation claims ends. This study investigated the association of a range of variables with well-being in injured workers who had finalized a workers' compensation claim >3 months prior.

Methods: On-line, cross-sectional survey (n = 129, 55.81% female). Well-being was measured using the Psychological Wellbeing 18-item (PWB) and the Personal Wellbeing Score (PWS).

Results: Multivariable quantile regression analysis controlling for education level demonstrated associations between the PWB and levels of psychological distress (-1.53; 95% CI, -2.11 to -0.94; P < 0.001) and resilience (6.51; 95% CI, 2.65 to 10.37; P = 0.001), and between the PWS and levels of psychological distress (-0.04; 95% CI, -0.51 to -0.29; P < 0.001) and resilience (1.2; 95% CI 0.47 to 1.93), P = 0.001.

Conclusions: Contemporaneous variables of resilience and psychological distress were stronger correlates with well-being than historic claim-related variables.

工人赔偿索赔最终确定后的福利：一项横断面调查。

目的：在工伤索赔结束后，受伤工人可能处于不利地位。本研究调查了一系列变量的关联与福祉的受伤工人谁最终确定了工人赔偿索赔bbbb3个月前。方法：在线横断面调查（n = 129，女性55.81%）。幸福感采用心理健康18项量表（PWB）和个人幸福感量表（PWS）进行测量。结果：控制教育程度的多变量分位数回归分析显示PWB与心理困扰水平相关(-1.53；95% CI, -2.11 ~ -0.94；P < 0.001)和弹性(6.51；95% CI, 2.65 ~ 10.37；P = 0.001)， PWS与心理困扰水平之间(-0.04；95% CI, -0.51 ~ -0.29；P < 0.001)和恢复力(1.2；95% CI 0.47 ~ 1.93), P = 0.001。结论：弹性和心理困扰的同期变量比历史索赔相关变量与幸福感的相关性更强。
