To examine the independent and joint effects of psychosocial chronic and acute stressors with weight status and to report the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) for BMI. Baseline data on 2782 employees from a group-randomized weight gain prevention intervention were examined to investigate the effect of high job strain and job insecurity on body mass index (BMI) and on the odds of overweight/obesity including potential confounders and mediating variables. Data were analyzed using mixed models. The mediating variables removed the effect of high job strain on weight (β = 0.68, p = 0.07; OR = 1.34, CI = 1.00, 1.80) while job insecurity was never significant. ICC for BMI is 0.0195, 0.0193 and 0.0346 overall, for men and women, respectively. Worksite wellness should target health enhancing behaviors to minimize the health effects of psychosocial work conditions.
