This leads to poor mental and physical health, increased mortality, negative job performance, and increased economic costs, such as work-related injuries, sick leave, worker's compensation claims and disability. Improving health and safety among this occupation requires identifying the factors contributing to stress and the associated economic impact. We assessed corrections professionals (n=296) working at six different Oregon Department of Corrections facilities near the Portland-area of varying security levels. 000008261 540__ $$fCC BY 000008261 542__ $$fIn copyright - joint owners 000008261 650__ $$aStress, Psychological$$026470 000008261 650__ $$aOccupational Stress$$012148 000008261 650__ $$aCorrectional Facilities Personnel$$013951 000008261 650__ $$aPrisons$$024599 000008261 650__ $$aCorrectional Facilities$$013277 000008261 650__ $$aMental Health$$022046 000008261 651__ $$aOregon$$041094 000008261 6531_ $$astress 000008261 691__ $$aSchool of Medicine$$041369 000008261 692__ $$aSection of Health Promotion and Sports Medicine$$041507 000008261 7001_ $$aBallin, Jessica$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000008261 7001_ $$aKuehl, Kerry$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000008261 7001_ $$aElliot, Diane$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000008261 7001_ $$aNiederhausen, Meike$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000008261 7001_ $$aMcGinnis, Wendy$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000008261 7001_ $$aDeFrancesco, Carol$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000008261 711__ $$aResearch Week$$uOregon Health and Science University$$d2020 000008261 8564_ $$968122b02-6dad-426e-b5ca-6e022b3c8a2f$$s48949$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/8261/files/Jessica-Ballin.pdf 000008261 905__ $$a/rest/prod/n8/70/zr/60/n870zr60r 000008261 980__ $$aResearch Week
