Background

Many studies have been conducted to investigate the harmful effect of shift work on physical and mental health. Although, by definition, “working evening shift” is included in the scope of shift work, most related studies conducted thus far have focused on working night shifts, overtime work, or different types of shift work, with little research effort dedicated to “working evening shifts.” Therefore, to fill this research gap, we investigated the effect of working evening shifts on workers’ mental health.

Methods

The participants of this study were 16,692 employees of the 50,205 that participated in the 5th wave of the Korean Working Conditions Survey. We performed χ2 test and logistic regression analysis to analyze the effects of independent variables on health problems and calculated odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals (CIs).

Results

In the logistic regression analysis adjusted for sociodemographic characteristics, health-related factors, and work-related characteristics, employees who worked evening shifts showed higher levels of depression and anxiety compared to those that did not. In particular, the adjusted odds ratios of the group working evening shifts between one and nine times a month were the highest with 2.723 (95% CI: 2.014–3.682) for depression, 3.294 (95% CI: 2.547–4.259) for anxiety.

Conclusions

The results of our study suggest that working evening shifts has a negative effect on employees’ mental health. This trend decreased with an increase in the monthly frequency of evening work.

한국 근로자의 저녁 근무와 정신건강과의 관련성: 제 5차 한국 근로환경조사를 이용하여
목적
교대근무가 신체 및 정신건강에 미치는 유해한 영향에 대해서는 많은 연구가 이루어져왔다. 하지만 정의 상 저녁근무 또한 교대근무에 포함됨에도 불구하고 기존의 연구는 주로 야간근무 및 장시간 근무 또는 교대근무의 형태에 대해서 다뤘을 뿐 저녁시간 근무에 대한 검토는 거의 없었다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 저녁시간 근무가 근로자의 정신건강에 미치는 영향에 대해 알아보고자 하였다.
방법
이 연구는 제 5차 한국 근로환경조사에 포함된 50,205명의 참가자 중 임금 근로자 16,692명을 대상으로 진행되었다. 카이제곱 검정을 사용하여 대상자들의 각 특성과 건강문제와의 관련성을 파악하고, 이러한 결과를 기반으로 로지스틱 회귀분석을 시행하여 건강문제에 대한 독립변인의 영향력을 파악하고 교차비 (OR)와 95% 신뢰 구간 (CI)을 산출하였다.
결과
사회인구학적 특성, 건강관련 요인, 직업별 특성에 따라 조정된 로지스틱 회귀 분석에서 저녁 근무를 수행하는 근로자는 그렇지 않은 근로자에 비해 높은 수준의 우울, 불안, 피로감을 보였다. 특히 저녁 근무를 한 달에 1회이상 9회 이하 수행하는 군의 조정된 교차비는 우울 2.723 (95% confidence interval (CI): 2.014-3.682), 불안 3.294 (95% CI:2.547-4.259)으로 가장 높은 수치를 나타냈다.
결론
우리 연구의 결과는 저녁시간 근무가 근로자의 정신건강에 부정적 영향을 미침을 나타낸다. 이러한 경향은 한 달에 수행하는 저녁근무 횟수가 증가할수록 감소하는 결과를 보였다.

Relationship between long work hours and self-reported sleep disorders of non-shift daytime wage workers in South Korea: data from the 5th Korean Working Conditions Survey
Hongsuk Choi, Sungho Lee, Man-Joong Jeon, Young-Sun Min

Background

Studies have investigated the relationship between long work hours and sleep disorders; however, they have focused on shift workers or specific workers who are at high risk of industrial accidents rather than wage workers in general. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of long work hours on sleep disorders among non-shift daytime wage workers.

Methods

We conducted a secondary analysis of data from the 5th Korean Working Conditions Survey. From the 50,205 total participants, we included 26,522 non-shift daytime wage workers after excluding self-employed people, business owners, unpaid family employees, and wage workers who work nights and shifts. Sleep disorders were categorized into “difficulty in falling asleep,” “frequent waking,” and “waking up with fatigue.” Logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the influence of long work hours on sleep disorders, and the odds ratios (ORs) were calculated.

Results

The OR of working > 52 hours per week was 1.183 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.002–1.394) for the risk of developing insomnia compared with working ≤ 40 hours per week. The OR of waking up with fatigue was 1.531 (95% CI: 1.302–1.801). Long work hours showed no significant relationship with difficulty in falling asleep or with frequent waking.

Conclusions

Working for extended hours was associated with increased fatigue upon waking in non-shift daytime wage workers.

AbstractAbstract PDFPubReaderePub

Mercury occurs in various chemical forms, and it is different to health effects according to chemical forms. In consideration of the point, the evaluation of the mercury exposure to human distinguished from occupational and environmental exposure.

With strict to manage occupational exposure in factory, it is declined mercury intoxication cases by metallic and inorganic mercury inhalation to occupational exposure. It is increasing to importance in environmental exposure and public health.

The focus on the health impact of exposure to mercury is more on chronic, low or moderate grade exposure—albeit a topic of great controversy—, not high concentration exposure by methylmercury, which caused Minamata disease.

Recently, the issue of mercury toxicity according to the mercury exposure level, health effects as well as the determination of what mercury levels affect health are in the spotlight and under active discussion. Evaluating the health effects and Biomarker of mercury exposure and establishing diagnosis and treatment standards are very difficult.

It can implement that evaluating mercury exposure level for diagnosis by a provocation test uses chelating agent and conducting to appropriate therapy according to the result. but, indications for the therapy of chelating agents with mercury exposure have not yet been fully established.

The therapy to symptomatic patients with mercury poisoning is chelating agents, combination therapy with chelating agents, plasma exchange, hemodialysis, plasmapheresis. But the further evaluations are necessary for the effects and side effects with each therapy.

AbstractAbstract PDFPubReaderePub

Lead, which is widely used in industry, is a common element found in low concentrations in the Earth’s crust. Implementations to reduce environmental lead concentrations have resulted in a considerable reduction of lead levels in the environment (air) and a sustained reduction in the blood lead levels of the average citizen. However, people are still being exposed to lead through a variety of routes in everyday commodities.

Lead causes health problems such as toxicity of the liver, kidneys, hematopoietic system, and nervous system. Having a carcinogenic risk as well, the IARC classifies inorganic lead compounds as probably carcinogenic to humans (Group 2A). Occupational lead poisonings have decreased due to the efforts to reduce the lead concentrations in the working environment. In contrast, health hazards associated with long-term environmental exposure to low concentrations of lead have been reported steadily. In particular, chronic exposure to low concentrations of lead has been reported to induce cognitive behavioral disturbances in children.

It is almost impossible to remove lead completely from the human body, and it is not easy to treat health hazards due to lead exposure. Therefore, reduction and prevention of lead exposure are very important. We reviewed the toxicity and health hazards, monitoring and evaluation, and management of lead exposure.
