description | Few studies conducted before, has reported on the prevalence of depression,
anxiety and stress among clinical workers. However, only a fewer study reported on
psychological distress among non-clinical workers. This study is aimed to determine
the prevalence of depression anxiety and stress among non-clinical workers and
factors that associated with it. A total of 63 non-clinical workers take part and
completed the DASS 42 questionnaire as well as demographic form. The
prevalence of moderate, severe and extremely severe level of depression anxiety
and stress were 12.7%, 30.2% and 8% respectively. Depression was significantly
associated with exposure toward sexual harassment and bully, communication
problem among co-workers and superior and tight deadlines. Anxiety was
significantly related to exposure toward hazardous environment during working
hours, sexual harassment, race and gender discrimination, communication problem
and rate of salary received put workers under pressure. Stress was significantly
associated with communication problem, threat of job loss and rate of salary
received put workers under pressure. Therefore, above all factors listed, the
prevalence of anxiety level among non-clinical workers is the highest compared with
depression or stress level. |
