2. Sick of Work? : Questions of Class, Gender and Self-Rated Health
Sammanfattning : This thesis examines two aspects of social inequalities in health with three empirical studies that are based on the Swedish Level of Living survey (LNU): The relationship between accumulated occupational class positions during adulthood and health and the class-specific nature of gender differences in health.
