Abstract: Objective To understand the current situation of work pressure of primary care doctors in Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps,analyze its influencing factors,and provide suggestions for management decision-making and reducing work pressure of primary medical and health institutions. Methods A cluster sampling method was used to conduct a questionnaire survey from May 5th to August 23rd,2023,selecting doctors from all community health service centers(stations) and regimental hospitals of the South Xinjiang Third Division and the North Xinjiang Eighth Division in Tumxuk City and Shihezi City of the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps. We conducted a survey on the current status and influencing factors of work stress among 1 089 primary care doctors in Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps using a general information questionnaire and a clinical work stress source scale. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of work stress among primary care doctors. Results The work stress score of primary care doctors in Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps was (97.28±18.62)points,which was at a moderate to high level. The workload score was (2.99±0.66)points,and the external environment score was (2.95±0.73)points. Work load and external environment were the main sources of work stress,and 392 people received high-level social support,accounting for 36.0%,502 people had good family functions,accounting for 46.1%. The results of multiple factor analysis showed that practice qualification,number of children,working hours,sleep time,perceived stress,subjective perception of growth,participation in stage training and education,social support,and level of family care could all affect the work stress of primary care doctors(all P<0.05). Conclusion The work stress of primary care doctors in Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps needs to be improved. The workload and external environment have brought about significant work stress,and factors such as social support and family care can affect work stress. It is necessary to focus on the work stress of primary care doctors with intermediate professional titles.
