Abstract | This cross-sectional study investigated the association between worktime
control (WTC), independently and in combination with hours worked
(HW), and four mental health outcomes among 2,318 participants of the
Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA-Brasil) who worked from home
during the COVID-19 pandemic. WTC was assessed by the WTC Scale, and
mental health outcomes included depression, anxiety, stress (measured by
the Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale, DASS-21), and self-rated mental
health. Logistic regression models were used to determine odds ratios (ORs)
and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Among women, long HW were associated
with stress (OR = 1.56; 95% CI = 1.11–2.20) and poor self-rated mental health
(OR = 1.64; 95% CI = 1.13–2.38), whereas they were protective against anxiety
among men (OR = 0.59; 95% CI = 0.37–0.93). In both sexes, weak WTC
was associated with all mental health outcomes. Among women, the long
HW/weak WTC combination was associated with all mental health outcomes,
and short HW/weak WTC was associated with anxiety and stress. Among
men, long HW/strong WTC was protective against depression and stress,
while short HW/strong WTC and short HW/weak WTC was associated with all mental health outcomes. In both sexes, weak WTC, independently and
in combination with HW, was associated with all mental health outcomes.
WTC can improve working conditions, protect against mental distress, and
fosterwork-life balance for those who work from home. | en_US |
