title: [Influence of job burnout on sleep quality of oilfield workers].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate the influence of job burnout on sleep quality of oilfield workers.
  
  
  METHODS
  In January to August, 2014, the Chinese Maslach Burnout Inventory(CMBI) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI) were used to conduct investigation on job burnout and sleep quality in 1180 oilfield workers.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The scores on each subscale of CMBI showed significant differences between workers with different characteristics(marital status, working years, educational background, and type of work) (P<0.05). The global PSQI score for oilfield workers was 5.55±3.26, which was significantly higher than the national norm(3.88±2.52) (P<0.05), and the incidence of issues related to sleep quality was 32.54%. The PSQI score showed significant differences between workers with different characteristics(sex and working years)(P<0.05). The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that working years, sex, emotional exhaustion, and depersonalization were the major factors affecting sleep quality, and the workers with long working years, male workers with job burnout, and oilfield workers with issues related to sleep quality tend to have a high incidence of issues related to sleep quality.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Job burnout is the major factor influencing the sleep quality of oilfield workers, and reducing job burnout of such workers is an effective way to improve sleep quality.
