2.4.1. Direct Effects

**Hypothesis 1 (H1).** *As the job demands become more demanding, perceived occupational health of professional accountants decreases.*

**Hypothesis 2 (H2).** *As accountants have greater autonomy in the implementation of their professional skills, perceived occupational health increases.*

**Hypothesis 3 (H3).** *As the accountant has higher degree of autonomy in decision-making, perceived health increases.*

**Hypothesis 4 (H4).** *As the accountant has more support from his superiors, perceived occupational health increases.*

**Hypothesis 5 (H5).** *As the accountant has greater support from peers, perceived occupational health increases.*

2.4.2. Moderating Effects

**Hypothesis 6 (H6).** *Autonomy in the implementation of professional competences buffers the relationship between job demands and perceived occupational health.*

**Hypothesis 7 (H7).** *Autonomy in decision-making buffers the relationship between job demands and perceived occupational health.*

**Hypothesis 8 (H8).** *Support from one's superiors serves as a moderator of the relationship between the demands of the job role in perceived occupational health.*

**Hypothesis 9 (H9).** *Peer support serves as a moderator of the relationship between the demands of work on perceived occupational health.*
