Individuals with a satisfactory level of job satisfaction are much less likely to feel hopeless about their future and are more likely to perform efficiently in the workplace. General work stress (i.e., the work-related stress subjectively experienced) is a significant predictor of suicide cognitions. Furthermore, it has been posited that satisfaction and hope are fundamental to life from an existential perspective. We, therefore, tested a hypothetical model of general work stress, suicide cognitions, hopelessness, and job satisfaction. The data were collected from 416 health-care workers through a convenience sampling method. The mediation analysis results revealed significant negative and positive relationships among general work stress, suicide conceptions, hopelessness, and job satisfaction. The findings indicate that hopelessness and job satisfaction have a parallel mediating effect in the relationship between general work stress and suicide cognitions. The result of the study is of great importance, which suggests that interventions to alleviate hopelessness and work stress and to boost the job satisfaction of medical staff may help prevent suicide cognitions.

Suicide is an imperative public health problem that needs social as well as medical attention. In India, 134516 people committed suicide in 2018 and also there is an increase in the number of suicide cases in Uttarakhand as well. The aim was to analyse the trend of suicidal deaths autopsied at our center concerning different parameters like age, gender, method of suicide, reason for suicide, to know the demographic pattern and its cause. The autopsy reports and inquest papers of suicidal cases autopsied at AIIMS Rishikesh were included for evaluation. Out of total 19.49% of total autopsies were of suicidal deaths. Majority of the victims were males (76.42%) compared to females (22.76%). The average age of victims was 35 years and 76.4% belonged to the age group 14 to 43 years. The risk of suicide was more prevalent in urban population. Among the total victims, 39.83% were in jobs. Regarding the reason behind suicide, family dispute was most common. The most common mode of suicide was hanging followed by poisoning and drowning. Organophosphates was the most repeated poison consumed in suicides by poisoning. About 75% cases were complete suicides and couldn't receive medical care. Majority of the cases belonged to Rishikesh police station. The important aspects of suicides among young generation is peer pressure which can be from family, institutional, or work etc. An effective strategy needs to be devised to combat the issue.

Background The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between job stress and impaired fasting glycemia (IFG) of male workers in a manufacturing industry. Methods Data were collected from 5,886 male workers in a manufacturing industry who participated in the medical examination from June 19 to August 14, 2020 through self-reported questionnaires. The general characteristics of the subjects, shift work, high blood pressure, dyslipidemia, and job stress were included. Job stress was measured using the Korean Occupational Stress Scale (KOSS) consisting of 8 items and 43 questions. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the IFG association with job stress. Results Among the various factors that can cause job stress, only high job demand was associated with a risk of IFG (odds ratio, 1.43; 95% confidence interval, 1.13–1.82) especially in non-shift worker. For all other factors, no statistically significant results were obtained. Conclusions In this study of male workers engaged in the Korean steel manufacturing industry, the 'job demand' item among job stress of non-shift worker was related to IFG.
