A cross‐sectional study was conducted to assess the prevalence of sick building syndrome symptoms and its associated factors among bank employees. Data were collected through a self‐administered MM040NA questionnaire among 234 employees of commercial banks in Pokhara Metropolitan, Nepal. The prevalence of general, ocular, respiratory, and dermal sick building syndrome symptoms was 47.6%, 11.9%, 11.9%, and 8.1%, respectively. The perceived indoor physical environment was a significant predictor of sick building syndrome symptoms. Besides this, age, disturbance from temperature and work pressure were significantly associated with general symptoms. Ocular symptoms were significantly associated with disturbance from noise at their workplaces and support from fellow workers. Respiratory symptoms were significantly associated with the time spent working with a photocopy machine. Proper maintenance of room temperature, noise control, good ventilation system, and promotion of supportive psychosocial working environment at banks is important to prevent and control the suffering of employees from SBS symptoms.

进行了一项横断面研究，以评估银行雇员中病态建筑综合症症状的患病率及其相关因素。通过自我管理的MM040NA问卷收集了尼泊尔博克拉大都会地区234名商业银行员工的数据。一般，眼，呼吸和皮肤病建筑综合症症状的患病率分别为47.6％，11.9％，11.9％和8.1％。感知的室内物理环境是建筑物病综合症症状的重要预测指标。除此之外，年龄，温度和工作压力的干扰与一般症状显着相关。眼部症状与工作场所的噪音干扰和同事的支持密切相关。呼吸系统症状与影印机工作时间显着相关。适当地维持室温，噪声控制，良好的通风系统以及在银行中促进支持性的社会心理工作环境，对于预防和控制员工遭受SBS症状的痛苦非常重要。
