与工作压力有关的生产力损失是一个巨大的经济负担。在这项研究中，我们估计社会和任务相关的压力源和资源在工作中对健康相关的生产力损失造成的缺勤和出勤的影响。本研究还探讨了工作压力源、工作资源和个人资源之间的交互作用，并估算了工作压力的成本。工作压力被定义为高工作压力源和低工作资源的不利组合。这项研究是基于对瑞士雇员的工作效率和工作场所特点进行的一项重复调查。我们使用一个代表性的横截面数据集和纵向数据集，并应用OLS和固定效应模型。我们发现，任务相关的和社会工作压力的增加会增加与健康相关的生产力损失，而社会工作资源和个人资源（以职业自我效能感衡量）的增加会减少这些损失。此外，我们发现，工作压力源有一个更强的影响健康相关的生产力损失的员工缺乏个人和工作资源，和员工的工作压力源和低水平的个人资源将最大的利润从增加工作资源。由于工作压力造成的缺勤和出勤率损失估计为每人每月195瑞士法郎。我们的研究对旨在减少健康缺勤和出勤的干预措施有影响。
Work stress-related productivity losses represent a substantial economic burden. In this study, we estimate the effects of social and task-related stressors and resources at work on health-related productivity losses caused by absenteeism and presenteeism. We also explore the interaction effects between job stressors, job resources and personal resources and estimate the costs of work stress. Work stress is defined as exposure to an unfavorable combination of high job stressors and low job resources. The study is based on a repeated survey assessing work productivity and workplace characteristics among Swiss employees. We use a representative cross-sectional data set and a longitudinal data set and apply both OLS and fixed effects models. We find that an increase in task-related and social job stressors increases health-related productivity losses, whereas an increase in social job resources and personal resources (measured by occupational self-efficacy) reduces these losses. Moreover, we find that job stressors have a stronger effect on health-related productivity losses for employees lacking personal and job resources, and that employees with high levels of job stressors and low personal resources will profit the most from an increase in job resources. Productivity losses due to absenteeism and presenteeism attributable to work stress are estimated at 195 Swiss francs per person and month. Our study has implications for interventions aiming to reduce health absenteeism and presenteeism.
