ObjectivesA cross-sectional study was conducted to investigate whether working hours mismatch is associated with workaholism.Material and MethodsThis study used the data from the 17th wave (2014) of the nationwide Korean Labor and Income Panel Study. Workaholism was evaluated using the Workaholism Analysis Questionnaire. The final study involved 3157 subjects who answered questions regarding both workaholism and working hours mismatch. To identify the association between working hours mismatch and workaholism according to weekly working hours, a stratification analysis was conducted by dividing the number of working hours/week into 3 groups (≤40 h, 41–59 h, and ≥60 h). The odds ratios were calculated using a multiple logistic regression model, which was adjusted for potential confounders.ResultsThe workers working more hours than desired showed the greatest frequency of workaholism. As regards workaholism, in all weekly working hours groups, the odds ratios of the group working more hours than desired were 4.28, 95% CI: 2.29–7.99 (≥40 h), 2.14, 95% CI: 1.34–3.43 (41–59 h), 3.40, 95% CI: 1.60–7.21 (≤60 h), which were statistically significant compared to the reference (matched) group. There was no statistically significant relationship between working hours and workaholism when stratified according to the mismatch in working hours.ConclusionsThe workers’ working hours mismatch can be significantly related to workaholism.

Celem artykułu jest analiza pracoholizmu (uzależnienia od pracy) pod kątem realizacji funkcji gospodarowania kapitałem ludzkim w organizacji. Zmiana warunków i sposobów pracy stawia przed służbami pracowniczymi i służbami medycyny pracy wiele ciekawych i trudnych zadań związanych z obniżaniem ryzyka wystąpienia pracoholizmu i jego skutków. Konieczność prewencji – rodzi potrzebę redefiniowania dotychczasowych sposobów interpretowania funkcji gospodarowania kapitałem ludzkim w organizacji. Dotychczasowa wiedza i realizowane koncepcje mogą być już nieodpowiednie do nowych, „burzliwych” czasów gospodarki wolnorynkowej. W artykule tym sugeruję także, jak należałoby „przeorganizować” niektóre funkcje gospodarowania kapitałem ludzkim w organizacjach by zapobiegać nasilaniu występowania określonych typów pracoholików.

The article aims to analyse workaholism (job addiction) in terms of exploiting the function of human resources management in organization. The change of conditions and methods of working confronts the working services and occupational medicine services with a lot of interesting and difficult objectives aiming at lowering the risk of workaholism and its consequences. The need of prevention leads to necessary redefining of the existing ways of interpreting the function of human resources management in organization. Previous knowledge and concept realizations can be inadequate to the new ‘stormy’ times of the free market economy. In this article I have suggested ways of ‘reorganizing’ selected functions of human resources management in organizations in order to prevent the increase in the number of certain types of workaholics.
