工作场所是SARS-CoV-2接触的重要潜在来源；然而，缺乏对工作场所接触模式的调查。这项研究旨在调查英国新冠肺炎疫情中，不同职业的工作场所出勤率和接触特征是如何变化的。数据来自受雇/自雇的前瞻性队列研究参与者(n=4,616)提交的电子联系日记(2020年11月至2021年11月)。我们使用混合模型来研究职业和时间对以下方面的影响：工作场所出勤率、共享工作空间的人数、共享工作空间花费的时间、密切接触的人数和面罩的使用情况。工作场所的出勤率和联系模式因职业和时间而异。医疗保健人员(78%[95%CI：75-81%])和教育工作者(%[59%-69%])预测的白天密集空间共享的概率最高，他们也有更多亲密接触的可能性(分别为36%[32%-40%]和38%[33%-43%])。教育工作者也显示出在近距离接触中戴面罩的预测概率相对较低(51%[44%-57%])。在所有职业群体中，在限制不那么严格的阶段，工作空间共享和密切接触增加，面罩的使用减少。工作场所接触模式和口罩使用的重大差异可能会导致新冠肺炎风险的差异。占领和限制阶段的变化模式可能会为未来一波新冠肺炎或其他呼吸道流行病的干预提供信息。在各个职业中，由于社区传播和变种的出现，工作场所接触的增加和遮脸使用的减少令人担忧。医学研究理事会；英国政府；惠康信托
Workplaces are an important potential source of SARS-CoV-2 exposure; however, investigation into workplace contact patterns is lacking. This study aimed to investigate how workplace attendance and features of contact varied between occupations across the COVID-19 pandemic in England. Data were obtained from electronic contact diaries (November 2020-November 2021) submitted by employed/self-employed prospective cohort study participants (n=4,616). We used mixed models to investigate the effects of occupation and time for: workplace attendance, number of people sharing workspace, time spent sharing workspace, number of close contacts, and usage of face coverings. Workplace attendance and contact patterns varied across occupations and time. The predicted probability of intense space sharing during the day was highest for healthcare (78% [95% CI: 75–81%]) and education workers (64% [59%–69%]), who also had the highest probabilities for larger numbers of close contacts (36% [32%–40%] and 38% [33%–43%] respectively). Education workers also demonstrated relatively low predicted probability (51% [44%–57%]) of wearing a face covering during close contact. Across all occupational groups, workspace sharing and close contact increased and usage of face coverings decreased during phases of less stringent restrictions. Major variations in workplace contact patterns and mask use likely contribute to differential COVID-19 risk. Patterns of variation by occupation and restriction phase may inform interventions for future waves of COVID-19 or other respiratory epidemics. Across occupations, increasing workplace contact and reduced face covering usage is concerning given ongoing high levels of community transmission and emergence of variants.
