| Research Abstract |
This study started to have a comparative data with the Whitehall II study of civil servants in London. In 1997 medical examinations and a questionnaire survey were conducted for 1, 652 (1, 100 men and 552 women) of civil servants aged 35 and older of Takarazuka city. The results of the medical examinations of 1, 543 participants (93. %) and those of the questionnaire of 1, 364 respondents (83. 4%) are shown below.
Smoking rate in men was about 40% among clerical or professional workers, but it was over 60% among manual workers or firemen.
To evaluate the effect of job demand, job control and social support either in individuals or in organizations on subjective health, multilevel analysis was conducted on 1, 138 (834 men and 304 women) of 130 departments, where there were 4 or more respondents of the questionnaire. A number of those with poor subjective health was 195. In individual levels, those with higher job demand were more likely (OR=2.23) to have poor subjective health than those with lower job demand. In organizational (department) level, those who belong to departments with higher rate of higher job demand were more likely (OR=1.36) to have poor subjective health than those who belong to departments with lower rate of higher job demand.
