Occupational stress and the onset of diabetes mellitus (DM) have been the subject of numerous previous studies. The Brief Job Stress Questionnaire (BJSQ), which is a common stress test in Japan, has only been used in a few studies to examine occupational stress and DM. Using the BJSQ, the purpose of this study was to ascertain the connection between factors of occupational stress and the onset of DM.
In 2013, we looked at 6,620 male workers in a company with 40 or more employees. The BJSQ was administered at that time. In total, 2,604 people without DM or mental illness but with impaired glucose tolerance were reexamined in 2017 after five years of follow-up. In 2019, the retrospective data analysis was carried out. In 2017, we discovered 241 new cases of DM (diabetes group). Subjects in the diabetes group had significantly lower “skill utilization” levels than those in the non-diabetes group. According to the generalized linear model of the binomial logistic regression analysis, “skill utilization” was associated with the risk of DM development in 2017 (odds ratio, 1.632; 1.061–2.510) is the 95 percent confidence interval. According to our findings, low skill utilization may increase diabetes development risk among male Japanese workers.
