Study On The Physiological Health Among Occupational Groups Who Had Contacted/may Contact HIV/AIDS In Their Career

[Objectives]: To describe the physiological health among occupational groups who had contacted/may contact HIV/AIDS in their career. To compare the difference of work tension, anxiety, depression, overall job satisfaction between people who had contacted HIV/AIDS in their career (case group) and people who un-contacted HIV/AIDS (control group) , to explore the knowledge of HIV/AIDS, occupational hazards and work tension, anxiety, depression, overall job satisfaction of people who had contacted/may contact HIV/AIDS during their career, and to explore the knowledge of HIV/AIDS, occupational hazards and influence of career attitude of people who had contacted/may contact HIV/AIDS during their career.[Methods]: (Cross-section study) A questionnaire was used to investigate 543 occupational groups who had contacted/may contact HIV/AIDS in their career in hospitals, CDCs , the custody centers, jails, etc. All data were analyzed by SPSS 13.0.[Result]:People who had contacted HIV/AIDS got higher scores on work tension(P＜0.001); People who had contacted HIV/AIDS got higher scores on anxiety(P＜0.001); People who had contacted HIV/AIDS got higher scores on depression(P＜0.05) ; People who had contacted HIV/AIDS felt lower job satisfaction(P＜0.001); People' knowledge of HIV/AIDS had dissimilarity of their different occupational category (P＜0.05);The occupation groups' OHI(P＜0.001),OHIC(P＜0.001) had difference among the different occupational category; Control group thought HIV/AIDS had stronger influence on their career attitude(P＜0.05); The occupation groups' CAEI(P＜0.001),CAEIC(P＜0.05) was dissimilar of the different occupational category. There was a positive relationship between OHI and the scores of work tension (P＜0.001) ; There was a positive relationship between OHI and the scores of anxiety(P＜0.001) ; There was a positive relationship between OHI and the scores of depression (P＜0.001) ; There was a positive relationship between OHI and the scores of overall job satisfaction (P＜0.05).[Conclusions]: Getting in touch with HIV/AIDS in the work would influence the physiological health of the occupation group. Getting in touch with HIV/AIDS in the work would influence work tension, anxiety and depression;people who had contacted HIV/AIDS had a lower level of overall work satisfaction. The occupation group had some HIV/AIDS disseminations and prevention knowledge, but professional HIV/AIDS knowledge was in a bad condition. The different occupation category' occupation risk differed. Whether or not they had contacted HIV/AIDS and the different occupation category had different influence of the career attitude. The occupation hazard is higher, occupation group will get more work tension, anxiety, depression, and overall work satisfaction is lower.
