Results High imbalance,high overcommitment and severe work environment were associated with enhanced hypertension risk significantly.The OR was 1.848 (P=0.018),2.058(P=0.000)and 1.797(P=0.008)for imbalance,overcommitment and severe work environment,respectively.After controlling othen risk factors,the relation still remained significant.
