SCIENTIFIC RESEARCHalcohol and society 07/01/2002 Job satisfaction and drinking behaviour Heavy drinking during the adolescence and ending up afterwards in a little fascinating job is accompanied by an increased risk of problematic drinking and alcohol dependence. People often think a high pressure of work is the main culprit for stress at work and the cause of their health problems. Pressure of work can indeed be very stressful, but that stress is not necessarily bad for your health. However, what does have an impact on our health is the way we deal with that stress and the extent to which we can decide about the own job description. A boring job with little variation upon which one has little control oneself seems to be a risk factor for our health. Men that have been drinking heavily in their youth and end up in such a working situation regularly relapse into excessive drinking that can lead to alcohol dependence. This is the main conclusion of a Swedish epidemiological research with regard to almost 50,000 men born between 1949 and 1951.
