Abstract Objective To examine the associations of occupational stress and well-being with depressive symptoms among couriers. Methods Four cities of Hangzhou, Ningbo, Jiaxing and Taizhou were sampled from Zhejiang Province according to the economic development level, and couriers were randomly sampled from 40 service stations assigned by 25 mainstream express transportation corporations in these four cities. Participants' occupational stress, well-being and depressive symptoms were evaluated using the Core Occupational Stress Scale (COSS), the World Health Organisation-Five Well-Being Index (WHO-5) and Chinese version of Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9). In addition, the associations of participants' occupational stress and well-being with depressive symptoms were examined using hierarchical linear regression analysis. Results A total of 1 302 questionnaires were allocated, and 1 136 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 87.25%. The participants included 839 males (73.86%), and 297 females (26.14%), and had a mean age of (33.34±8.17) years and a mean service length of (8.95±7.82) years. The detection rates of occupational stress, low well-being and depressive symptoms were 32.48%, 50.79%, and 31.87% among participants, respectively. After adjustment for educational level, income, marital status and smoking, hierarchical linear regression analysis showed that well-being (β=0.171), social support (β=-0.298), organization and reward (β=0.200), demand and effort dimensions of COSS (β=0.284) were statistically correlated with depressive symptoms (all P<0.001). Conclusion Occupational stress and low well-being may increase the risk of depressive symptoms among couriers.
