COVID-19 risk management at the workplace, fear of infection and fear of transmission of infection among frontline employees.

Objectives: We compared COVID-19 risk management, fear of infection and fear of transmission of infection among frontline employees working within eldercare, hospital/rehabilitation, psychiatry, childcare and ambulance service and explored if group differences in fear of infection and transmission could be explained by differences in risk management. We also investigated the association of risk management with fear of infection and fear of transmission of infection among eldercare personnel.

Methods: We used cross-sectional questionnaire data collected by the Danish labour union, FOA .
