Mental and physical wellbeing in Oncology-haematology unit personnel.

BACKGROUND: HCWs in UHUs face high job demand that can have adverse health effects.

OBJECTIVE: Investigate relationship between some job stressors and health-related quality of life among HCWs of three UHUs in Rome.

METHODS: Cross-sectional study. Work-related stress was measured with Demand-Control Questionnaire; health-related functioning with MCS and PCS of SF-12 Survey; positivity with Positivity Scale.

RESULTS: Data of 201 respondents were analyzed. Job demand was inversely associated with MCS (p = 0.05) and PCS (p = 0.049); job control was directly associated with PCS (p <0.001) and MCS (p = 0.024). A high positivity scale score and high decision latitude score was predictor of high MCS and PCS. High job demand score was predictor of low MCS and PCS scores.

CONCLUSIONS: Reduce job stressors and enhance positive attitudes can improve HCWs' health-related quality of life.
