Participants were asked 14 questions about their sociodemographic characteristics, disease and drug use status, 30 questions about their professional life quality, and 21 questions to evaluate their nutritional attitudes. The difference between the two groups with normal distribution was analyzed with the independent sample t-test, and the relationship between the two variables was analyzed with the pearson correlation test. Questionnaires and scales were administered to the participants online.Results: It was determined that 61.5% of the participants were male, 38.5% were female, and the mean age was 30.9 years.

In this context, the fact that white-collar employees have healthy and high-quality living conditions affects the increase in their professional life quality, productivity and professional satisfaction, and measures should be taken in this direct. | en_US |
