US workers’ self-reported mental health outcomes by industry and occupation

JAMA Network Open

About The Study: 

In this cross-sectional study, poor mental health among workers varied significantly by sociodemographic categories; significant differences among industry and occupation groups remained after adjustment. More research is needed on the effects of work-related factors on mental health, which may inform tailored treatment and prevention strategies.
