5.Influence of Health Behaviors and Work-Related
Characteristics
Employees insufficiently engaging in sports were over four
times more likely to report a poor to moderate health status at 6-
month follow-up. Previous cross-sectional studies also reported the
importance of this health behavior for maintaining a good health
status.4,11,29 In this study, none of the work-related characteristics
influenced employees’ perception of their health status, in contrast
to previous studies that found associations between high job demands
and low job control, and ill health.11,29,30 Nevertheless, when
a distinction was made between mental and physical health status,
unfavorable work-related characteristics were only associated with
employees’ mental health status.4 In this study, only a limited number
of employees (n = 42) reported a less than good self-perceived
health, which might have led to finding no significant associations.
