A Resourceful Work Environment Moderates the Relationship between Presenteeism and Health. A Study Using Repeated Measures in the Swedish Working Population.

ABSTRACT: The objective of this study was to investigate if the psychosocial work environment moderates the proposed negative impact of presenteeism on future general health.

We applied repeated measures regression analyses through generalized estimating equations (GEE). Results from the autoregressive GEE models showed statistically significant interaction terms between presenteeism and all four investigated moderators, i.e., job demands,
