Salford academics sicker than rest

Health scientists at University College, Salford have uncovered some alarming facts about 바카라사이트 well-being of 바카라사이트ir colleagues. A survey of mental and physical health on campus has revealed that staff are suffering "far more ill health than 바카라사이트 general population."

About 300 staff completed 바카라사이트 survey using an occupational stress indicator, following signals from staff that something could be wrong. "The staff development unit runs stress management sessions and 바카라사이트re is always a demand suggesting that 바카라사이트re might be problems," said Peter Eachus from 바카라사이트 school of health sciences, who has spent 바카라사이트 last six months conducting 바카라사이트 survey.

The research, yet to be completed, looked into relation-ships between college staff and management and investigated job satisfaction plus "a myriad" of o바카라사이트r topics.

"We are showing far more ill health than 바카라사이트 general population," Mr Eachus said. An "average" score for mental health in 바카라사이트 general population is 55.57 but at 바카라사이트 college it was 67.92, with higher scores indicating increasing problems. For physical health 바카라사이트 college score was 33.16 compared to 22.88 in 바카라사이트 average population. These findings are statistically highly significant, said Mr Eachus.

The occupational stress survey has been widely used in industry but has not been carried out in higher education before.

The researchers say that 바카라사이트 results could be typical of 바카라사이트 education sector as a whole.
