Abstract: Alcohol-related presenteeism (impaired work performance caused by alcohol use) is an
important but under-researched topic. The aim of this study was to explore whether psychosocial
work environment factors were associated with alcohol-related presenteeism. A cross sectional study
of Norwegian employees (n = 6620) was conducted. Logistic regression analyses were used for
estimating associations with alcohol-related presenteeism, which was reported among 473 (7.1%)
of the employees. Adjusted by age, gender, education level and managerial level, higher levels
of overcommitment to work were associated with alcohol-related presenteeism. Higher age, male
gender and higher education were also associated with alcohol-related presenteeism. Occupational
health services and employers should especially focus on overcommitted employees when designing
workplace health promotion programs. Modifying attitudes towards alcohol-related presenteeism
among overcommitted employees may be of importance for safety at work.
