我國船員職場疲勞與工作態度關係之研究

A Study on the Relationship between Fatigue and Job Related Attitudes of Taiwan's Seafarers

船員職場是個非常特殊的工作環境，船員因疲勞造成的海事案件逐年攀升，文獻指出船員疲勞主要是工作特質和環境所引起，諸如航程、航線、靠港頻率及輪班等。值得關注地，船員在疲勞下執行各項勤務對其工作態度是否有影響？本研究擬以IMO通函有關船員疲勞的四大類加上國內學者的「職場疲勞量表」中兩個項次，組成六大構面；以問卷調查方式針對本國商船船員蒐集相關資料，以探討其疲勞感覺對於工作態度的關聯性，資料分析係以結構方程模式執行之。研究分析結果顯示，疲勞感覺具有可信賴度，船員疲勞感覺對於工作滿意顯示負向的顯著影響，本研究依據研究結果深入分析與探討，期望對於航商在緩解船員疲勞的議題上有所助益。
