Background: Occupational stress is common among field farmers. Evidence suggests altered mental health issues following farming. Methods and Material: A cross-sectional study was performed among purposively selected 248 field farmers in a rural area of West Bengal in the span of July to September month, 2022. Four sections were included in the research tool. Results: Results found that 98% were small-field farmers. 79.84% of farmers had a moderate work ability index and it was associated with age, marital status, caste, and annual income. Elements of the brief COPE inventory were not associated with the Work Ability Index. The occupational stress factors were presented in the frequency of low to high-level experiences. Conclusions: This study demonstrated the association between the Work Ability Index and demographic variables. Occupational stress factors of agricultural, financial and family-related domains were identified. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
