The purpose of the study was to determine the relationship between sustaining an occupational injury/illness and indices of work productivity in nurses. The conceptual framework utilized an adaptation of the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health's (NIOSH) Model of job stress and health. The research design used in this study was cross-sectional. A self-administered, Web based anonymous questionnaire was administered to nurses of a large not-for-profit health care system of six hospital campuses in south Texas. Data was collected over the three-week period, June 25, 2007 through July 17, 2007. The survey instrument consisted of four sections: occupational injury experience; General Perceived Self-Efficacy Scale (measures perceived self-efficacy to predict coping with daily hassles as well as adaptation after experiencing all kinds of stressful life events through a GSE score); Modified Work Limitations Questionnaire (MWLQ) and Time Loss Module (measures work limitations and productivity through a MWLQ Index Score); and demographics section. Participants were asked to recall their occupational injury/illness experience over the past 24 months and base their responses on how their most serious injury (musculoskeletal, chemical, workplace violence, etc.) affected them at work during the four weeks immediately following that specific injury/illness. Of the 141 study participants, 42% reported having an injury over the past 24 months. The majority rated workplace violence exposure (32.2%) or musculoskeletal injury (30.5%) as their injury of greatest impact. Study results examining the main research question of whether there was a difference in perceived productivity between nurses who have sustained an occupational injury/illness and those who have not were mixed. The bivariate analysis found no evidence of a statistically significant difference in the median MWLQ Index Score between the two groups. The median score was 9.26 versus 9.91 for the "Not injured" and "Injured" groups respectively, p = .51. However, in the multiple linear regression analysis which examined which variables (age, gender, experience, education, injury or not, and self-efficacy) are more strongly associated with perceived productivity among nurses, only injury status was a significantly significant predictor of the MWLQ Index Score, p = .036. Although this study found that there was no significant association between the MWLQ index score and the nurses' self-efficacy score (Hypothesis 2), it was nearing significance (rho = -.17, p = .077). Furthermore, in the multiple linear regression analysis to examine which variables are more strongly associated with perceived productivity among nurses, general self-efficacy approached significance (p = .059). It was determined that there is no statistically significant difference in the average GSE score for nurses who have versus those who have not sustained an injury in the past 24 months.
