Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the association between workplace social capital at the individual and government organizational levels, and self-rated health among public employees in South Korea. We conducted a cross-sectional survey of public employees at government organizations in South Korea from June 2018 to December 2018. In total, 815 respondents in 31 government organizations were analyzed. We fitted two-level random intercept logistic regression models. We found that the vertical component of workplace social capital at the individual and organizational levels was positively associated with good self-rated health. Our results suggest that decision-makers targeting public interventions at the government organizational level to improve employee health are unlikely to observe an appreciable impact since a relatively small proportion of the variation in self-rated health was attributed to this level.
