職場におけるメンタルヘルス対策は重要な課題である。職業性ストレス簡易調査票を用いて短大教職員と事務系職員の職業性ストレスを比較した。対象者は旧A市役所職員300名(男性225名、女性75名)、短大教職員55名(男性21名、女性34名)。平均回収率54.9%。平均年齢は41.8歳(標準偏差±11.5歳)であった。短大教職員は事務系職員と比較し仕事の要求度(仕事の量、スピード、複雑さ)、仕事のコントロール(仕事の裁量権や自由度等)が有意に高かったが、同僚の支援は有意に低かった。上司の支援に有意の差はなかった。また、ストレスの量-コントロール判定図および職場の支援判定図からみた仕事のストレス判定図の結果、事務系職員の総合健康リスクは92.0、短大教職員は87.0であり、全国平均の総合健康リスク100と比較し事務系職員は8.0%、短大教職員は13.0%健康リスクが低くなっていた。Mental health at work has been an important subject. We have examined job stress among junior college staff in comparison with civil servants. Participants: 300 (225 males and 75 females) civil servants in a city government and 55 (21 males and 34 females) junior college staff. The average collection rate is 54.9%. The mean age was 41.84±11.5 years old. The present sample of junior college staff shows meaningfully higher job demands (amount of task, speed and complexity) and task control (discretion and flexibility of task performing) than civil servants. Junior college staff shows significantly lower support rate from their colleagues than civil servants. There is no significant difference on support rate from their bosses. In terms of stress levels which are shown in diagrams of stress measurement combined with diagrams of stress control and support, general health risk level of civil servants is 92.0, while that of junior college staff is 87.0. Compared with national average of general health risk level 100, the level of civil servants is 8.0% lower and that of college staff is 13.0% lower
