This study aimed to quantitatively grasp the structure of support for balancing cancer treatment and work among occupational health nurses (OHNs) with the current implementation status. The anonymous questionnaire was designed based on the findings of our previous qualitative study and distributed to OHNs. The degrees of support implementation for workers with cancer, superiors and colleagues, and human resource managers were assessed for each item. Factor analysis of support items was conducted, and Wilcoxon signed-rank test was carried out to compare the support scores between the factors. Support for workers with cancer comprised six factors in which the factor, concerning the provision of information regarding resources inside and outside the company, showed the lowest score. Support for superiors and colleagues was divided into three factors, and that for human resource managers comprised two factors. By Mann-Whitney’s U-test, it was found that OHNs, who worked without full-time occupational health physicians for smaller companies, showed significantly higher implementation for several support factors, such as support to human resource managers. This study revealed the structure as well as implementation status of OHNs’ support for balancing cancer treatment and work, which will provide suggestions for developing training programs for OHNs to promote these activities.

这项研究旨在从目前的实施状态定量地了解支持平衡职业治疗护士（OHN）的癌症治疗和工作支持的结构。匿名问卷是根据我们先前的定性研究结果设计的，并分发给了OHN。针对每个项目评估了癌症工作者，上级和同事以及人力资源经理的支持实施程度。进行支持项目的因素分析，并进行Wilcoxon秩和检验以比较各因素之间的支持得分。对癌症工作者的支持包括六个因素，其中关于提供公司内外资源信息的因素得分最低。对上级和同事的支持分为三个因素，对于人力资源经理而言，这包括两个因素。通过曼·惠特尼（Mann-Whitney）的U检验，发现在没有小公司的专职职业健康医生的情况下工作的OHN在很多支持因素（例如对人力资源经理的支持）上的执行率要高得多。这项研究揭示了OHN支持平衡癌症治疗和工作的结构和实施状况，这将为制定OHN培训计划以促进这些活动提供建议。
