BACKGROUND: Two main theoretical models have been used to assess the impact of @entity551 (BP): the demand-control (DC) model and the effort-reward imbalance (ERI) model. Previous studies have mostly used a single time point exposure to examine this association. OBJECTIVE: To examine the effect of repeated job strain and ERI exposure on (1) @entity4764 ( @entity4764 ) evolution over 5   years and (2) @entity101 incidence over 5   years. METHOD: The design is a prospective cohort study. The study population was composed of 1394 white-collar workers (568 @entity1 and 826 @entity1 ). They were assessed three times during a 5-year period (years 1, 3 and 5). At each time, psychosocial work factors were measured using validated scales and @entity4764 was measured every 15   min during a working day. RESULTS: @entity1 who were chronically exposed over 5   years to an active job had a higher cumulative incidence of @entity101 (RR=2.05, 95% CI 1.36 to 3.09), compared with never-exposed @entity1 . In @entity1 , ERI exposure onset was associated with higher increases in systolic @entity4764 (+2.5   mm   Hg). No association was found between chronic high-strain exposure and @entity4764 . CONCLUSIONS: Chronic exposure to active jobs in @entity1 led to a higher risk of @entity101 and ERI exposure onset in @entity1 led to increases in systolic @entity4764 . Results from the present study highlight the need to consider chronic exposure in order to fully capture the deleterious effect of adverse psychosocial work stressors on @entity65 .
