Study on the Involvement of Firefighters in Leisure Activities and Work Stress - A Case Study of Kaohsiung Fire Station

[[abstract]]背景：台灣各縣市消防局大多採用「勤二休一」每週上班112小時的方式值勤，意味著消防人員必須連續上班48小時後才能休息24小時，在工作場合充滿危險性和不確定性因素下，更加劇了消防人員的壓力，也間接或直接導致不良的睡眠品質，長久累積下來，對消防人員的身心健康造成的傷害不可輕忽。根據國內調查顯示，超過七成的消防人員都有睡眠品質不良的問題，如何讓工作性質極為特殊的消防工作者能夠在良好的身體狀況下執行工作，守護民眾居家財產安全，是十分迫切的問題。 目的：本研究希望透過文獻探討及實證數據，本論文以「消防隊員之工作壓力、休閒活動參與與壓力調適之關聯性研究-以高雄市消防局第一、第二大隊為例」為研究方向，探討消防隊員之工作壓力、休閒活動參與與壓力調適之關聯性研究。 方法：本研究以高雄市消防局第一、第二大隊消防員為研究對象，共發出313份問卷，回收有效份數293份，有效回收率93.6%。 結果：量化分析結果顯示，基層消防人員的工作壓力很大，其中「工作的危險性及不確定因素，造成我的心理負擔」的壓力最大。 結論：基層消防人員希望能透過休閒活動參與來紓解工作上帶來的壓力；其中以「從事休閒活動對我而言是重要的」、「從事休閒活動是一件很開心的事情」、「從事休閒活動很有趣」等觀點最獲認同。在「壓力調適」上，基層消防人員認同透過休閒活動參與能達到壓力調適之功能；其中以「休閒活動使我能降低工作面臨的壓力」與「從事休閒活動使我能有愉快的心情上班，工作效率就會提升」的認同度最高。由此可知，「休閒活動參與」與「壓力調適」是基層消防人員認為可紓解「消防人員工作壓力」的有效作為。 關鍵字：消防隊員、工作壓力、休閒活動參與、壓力調適 Background: Most of the fire stations in Taiwan's counties and cities use the mode of "diligence and rest" for 112 hours a week, meaning that it means Firefighters must work continuously for 48 hours before they can rest for 24 hours. In the workplace, which is full of dangers and uncertainties, the pressure of firefighters will be further aggravated.
