Background: Although sick leave is a complex phenomenon, it is believed that there is potential for prevention at the workplace. However, little is known about this potential and what specific measures should be implemented. The purpose of the study was to identify perceived reasons to take work-related sick leave and to suggest preventive measures. The study was completed before the COVID-19 pandemic emerged, and the risk factors identified may have been amplified during the pandemic. Methods: An in-depth cross-sectional survey was conducted across a randomly selected sample of hospital nurses in Norway. The national sample comprised 1,297 nurses who participated in a survey about their sick leave during the previous 6 months. An open-ended question about perceived reasons for work-related sick leave was included to gather qualitative information. Results: Among hospital nurses, 27% of the last occurring sick leave incidents were perceived to be work-related. The most common reasons were high physical workload, high work pace, sleep problems, catching a viral or bacterial infection from patients or colleagues, and low staffing. Conclusions: Over a quarter of the last occurring sick leave incidents among Norwegian hospital nurses are potentially preventable. To retain and optimize scarce hospital nursing resources, strategies to reduce work-related sick leave may provide human and financial benefits. Preventive measures may include careful monitoring of nurses' workload and pace, optimizing work schedules to reduce the risk of sleep problems, and increasing staffing to prevent stress and work overload.

This study examined the impact of job demand and organizational culture on new task difficulties, burnout, and job satisfaction using a survey data of 145 family specialists in Healthy Family and Multicultural Family Support during the COVID-19 pandemic. We used the job demand-resources model and the competing values model to categorize the four dimensions of organizational culture as a conceptual framework for this study. We found that the mean of work overload was higher than the means of job conflict and job ambiguity. Our latent profile analysis proposed four profiles of organizational culture: cultural absence type, authoritative culture type, middle cultural balance type, and high cultural balance type. The results of multiple regression analyses showed that work overload was positively associated with difficulties in new task performance and burnout, job ambiguity was positively related to burnout, and job conflict and ambiguity were negatively related to job satisfaction. These findings imply that the higher the job demands reported by family specialists, the higher the level of burnout and the lower the job satisfaction. In addition, organizational culture was a unique predictor of burnout and lower level of job satisfaction. Family specialists in the groups with a high cultural balance were Family specialists in the groups with a high cultural balance were more likely to have lower levels of burnout than those in the culture absence and in the middle culture balance, and higher job satisfaction than the other groups. The results suggest that management strategies to build a creative workplace culture can prevent burnout and improve job satisfaction.

오늘날 인공지능과 같은 4차 산업혁명의 발달로 인하여 군 조직의 보안위협이 증대되고 있다. 이렇게 변화하거나 새롭게 등장하는 보안환경 속에서 발생하는 영향요인들이 보안 스트레스와 보안준수행동에 미치는 영향을 연구함으로써 군사보안을 준수하는데 기여될 수 있는 연구가 필요하다. 기존 선행연구에서 보안 스트레스를 유발하는 환경적인 영향요인 중 업무 과중, 업무 복잡성, 업무 불확실성, 업무 갈등을 추출하였다. 이러한 영향요인이 보안 스트레스에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지와 보안 스트레스의 매개역할 여부를 실증적으로 분석하였다. 분석결과, 업무 과중이 보안 스트레스에 통계적으로 유의미하게 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 보안 스트레스는 업무 과중과 보안준수행동간의 관계를 매개하는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 군 조직에서 과중한 보안업무로 인하여 보안 스트레스가 발생하고, 결국은 보안준수행동이 낮아지는 결과를 초래한다. 따라서 이런 상황을 관리하는 보안정책이 우선 추진되어야 할 것이다.
