description | Health-related lifestyle, harassment at work, and self-assessed
health of female flight attendants in comparison to that of female nurses and
female primary school teachers were surveyed. A higher proportion of flight
attendants than nurses or teachers were smokers, 26% vs. 15% and 17%
respectively; and consumed alcohol at least once a week, 40% vs. 21% and
16%. Repeated sexual harassment at work was more common among the flight
attendants, 31% vs. 8% and 4%; whereas bullying, physical violence
and threats were less prevalent among the flight attendants (12%) than among
nurses (19%). Flight attendants were on average somewhat taller, but weighed
on average less, 63.8 kg vs. 72.4 kg and 72.7 kg respectively. Repeated
exposure to sexual harassment, bullying, violence and threats was related to
less physical and psychological well-being in all the groups. Teachers scored
on average significantly lower than did the flight attendants on general health
and physical well-being, while nurses did not. |
