ABSTRACT This study examined the effects of job stress and daily stress on depressive symptoms and the role of resilience as a moderator among low-wage workers in South Korea. Using purposive sampling, we analysed 254 low-wage workers of private-sector organisations in Seoul and Gyeong-gi province. Results indicated that age, self-rated health, job stress, and daily stress were significant predictors of depressive symptoms, and the moderating effect of resilience was significant only for the relationship between daily stress and depressive symptoms. Findings suggest the significance of using different approaches to manage job stress and daily stress, which in turn will affect low-wage workers’ mental health.

韩国低工资工人的工作压力、日常压力和抑郁症状：韧性的作用

摘要 本研究考察了工作压力和日常压力对韩国低工资工人的抑郁症状的影响以及弹性作为调节器的作用。我们使用有目的的抽样分析了首尔和京畿道私营部门组织的 254 名低工资工人。结果表明，年龄、健康自评、工作压力和日常压力是抑郁症状的显着预测因子，韧性的调节作用仅对日常压力与抑郁症状之间的关系显着。研究结果表明，使用不同的方法来管理工作压力和日常压力的重要性，这反过来又会影响低工资工人的心理健康。
