ABSTRACT

This study examined the causal relationship between non-regular worker’s problem drinking, job stress and mental health focusing on the tension reduction hypothesis and intoxication hypothesis with self-report survey data based on 333 non-regular workers in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do in May 2015. The results showed that mental health appeared to have a complete mediating effect in the relationship between job stress and problem drinking, while the mediating effect of problem drinking in the relationship between job stress and mental health seems partial. That is, a high job stress resulted in mental health problem such as depression and/or anxiety, and mental health also affect problem drinking. Based on the results, the study discussed mental health interventions for non-regular workers to relieve job stress and problem drinking.
