Frequency and duration per occasion were assessed for leisure-time physical activities at 3 intensities as determined by shortness of breath. LIPA was defined as activity not causing shortness of breath. The participants were divided into 3 groups according to LIPA volume (none, <60 min/wk, or ≥60 min/wk) and into 2 groups according to HIPA volume (nJournal of occupational healthuiaf037https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC12303603biostudies-literatureRelatively lower-intensity physical activity during leisure time and presenteeism among Japanese workers.PMC12303603Okazaki HKabe IMiyamoto TKochi TTomizawa AYamamoto SDohi SMiyake HKonishi MNagata KInoue YMizoue TfalseRelatively lower-intensity physical activity during leisure time and presenteeism among Japanese workers.<h4>Objectives</h4>This study examines the cross-sectional association between relatively lower-intensity physical activity (LIPA) during leisure time and presenteeism, accounting for relatively higher-intensity physical activity (HIPA) during leisure time.<h4>Methods</h4>Data were derived from 11 438 workers from 6 worksites of large companies in Japan, which participated in a questionnaire survey conducted between fiscal years 2018 and 2020.
