| Tiivistelmä: | The relationship btw. health complaints and flexible work schedules was studied in a patient population selected by general practitioners. Some 480 patients btw. 20 and 60 yrs, currently employed or on sick leave, completed questionnaires compiling data on their work situation, subjective physical health, psychological well-being and quality of sleep. Subjective health measurements were performed by using 21-item Subjective Health Questionnaire. Psychological well-being was measured by applying a selection of the Sickness Impact Profile. Patients working rotating shifts, compressed weeks etc. showed significantly more health complaints, more problems related to their psychological performance and more sleeping problems than a control group of workers with non-flexible work schedules. Patients working on temporary employment contracts reported significantly more problems with their psychological performance. |
