| Title | A Study of Influence of PTSD on Firefighter Working Ability | ||
| Keyword | |||
| Abstract | In recent years, Taiwan has witnessed a surge in major disasters, resulting in a significant toll on human lives and impacting the physical and mental well-being of firefighters. The primary tasks of firefighting, including responding to fire alarms, engaging in emergency rescue operations, and providing ambulance services, constitute a substantial portion of the firefighters' responsibilities. The intensifying workload, filled with dangers and challenges, has imposed considerable unseen pressure on firefighters. This study aims to investigate the correlation between PTSD and the work quality of firefighters under the influence of PTSD, exploring whether PTSD has a discernible impact on work quality. The results of the study showed that traumatic stress disorder showed a negative correlation with the quality of work of firefighters. Further analysis showed that while 95% of firefighters showed mild symptoms of PTSD, 5% still showed moderate to severe symptoms. In addition, the study found some key points, including cognitive concerns (Pearson correlation is 0.300, p value is 0.067), cognitive adjustment (Pearson correlation is -0.109, p value is 0.514), job stress issues (Pearson correlation is -0.109, p value is 0.514) The correlation is 0.342 and the p value is 0.041) indicating that cognitive worry, cognitive adjustment and job stress have a greater impact on the work quality of firefighters, exacerbating the mental health and work performance of the affected firefighters. The findings of this study affirm that PTSD significantly affects the work quality of firefighters. Subsequent research endeavors will concentrate on mitigating PTSD to enhance overall work quality. |
