Resumen |
The hospitalisation rates for 10 occupational stress-related illnesses were studied in 4 groups of 3 age-adjusted cohorts of naval workers divided into occupational classes in order to identify reasons for differences in health risks among occupations and career phases. The study covered an 11-year period and showed that hospital and catering workers had the highest health risk for stress-related illness during nearly all phases or decades of a naval career. High hospitalization rates were found among manufacturing, deck and engineering workers and low rates among electronics and clerical workers. Highest hospitalisation rates for stress-related disease were found in the highest-age cohort. Job stress scores were calculated, and high scores tended to be associated with increased illness. |
