Abstract |
This study systematically measured and analyzed job stress among construction engineers in construction companies, differentiating between
those based at headquarters and those at construction sites. The aim is to propose a plan to alleviate job stress and enhance the work
efficiency of construction engineers in the future. The findings indicated elevated job stress levels for most construction engineers, regardless
of their location. Notably, on-site construction engineers with suboptimal working conditions experienced comparatively higher job stress than
their counterparts at headquarters. To effectively address job stress in the company, it is essential to allocate financial resources for stress
relief activities. Simultaneously, a well-considered preliminary plan should be established to consistently identify stress-relieving activities with
significant impact and tailor them to the specific needs of the construction engineers. These study results provide practical foundational data
for addressing job stress among construction engineers in construction companies. However, it is important to acknowledge the study's
limitations, as it does not present specific plans for job stress relief activities. Therefore, efforts are underway to address this limitation in
subsequent studies. |
