Abstract
Siegrist’s Effort–Reward Imbalance (ERI) model proposes that where there is an imbalance between work effort and reward, such that the effort is greater than the reward, work stress results, which may lead to a range of adverse health outcomes [1]. The model also proposes that over-commitment (personal motivation to work excessively) increases the risk of adverse health outcomes and that there is an interaction effect of over-commitment and ERI [1]. The ERI questionnaire, developed by Siegrist, measures effort, reward and over-commitment, to determine whether ERI and over-commitment are present [1]. This was originally in German, but has been translated into a number of languages including English, Swedish and French [1].Keywords
