本研究考察了工作压力（决策纬度）和工作量需求对员工缺勤的相对重要性。这项分析是基于两个工作地点的员工自我报告的机密数据，这些数据是从1995年开始在三个独立的横截面上收集的。在控制员工人口统计和其他工作场所特征的同时，使用负二项技术来估计决策纬度和工作量需求对员工出勤率的影响。估计结果表明，高决策纬度与全日缺勤（全日缺勤）、迟到或早退（部分缺勤）天数呈显著负相关。相反，低决策纬度的系数估计值在每个模型中都是正的，并且与部分缺勤显著相关。低工作量需求与部分缺勤呈显著负相关，与全日缺勤无显著负相关。决策纬度和工作量需求对缺勤的交互作用无统计学意义。最近的几项研究估计了决策自由度、工作量需求和心血管疾病等医疗问题之间的重要关系。目前的研究结果表明，决策自由度和工作量需求也与工作场所出勤率有关。雇主和职业卫生学家应考虑决策自由度和工作量需求，以此作为提高工作场所生产力和员工健康的手段。
This research examined the relative importance of two components of job stress—decision latitude and workload demand—on employee absenteeism. The analysis was based on confidential self-reported data from employees at two worksites, which were collected in three independent cross-sections beginning in 1995. The negative binomial technique was used to estimate the effects of decision latitude and workload demand on employee attendance, while controlling for employee demographics and other workplace characteristics. Estimation results show that high decision latitude was negatively and significantly related to number of full days absent from work (full absenteeism) and number of days arriving late to work or leaving work early (partial absenteeism). Conversely, the coefficient estimates for low decision latitude were positive in every model and significantly related to partial absenteeism. Low workload demand was negatively and significantly related to partial absenteeism, but not full days absent. The interaction effects of decision latitude and workload demand on absenteeism were not statistically significant. Several recent studies have estimated a significant relationship between decision latitude, workload demand, and medical problems such as cardiovascular disease. The current findings suggest that decision latitude and workload demand are also related to workplace attendance. Employers and occupational hygienists should consider decision latitude and workload demand as a means to improve workplace productivity and employee health.
