abstract: 'Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare workers and nonworkers who
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
reported mild, moderate, and severe/complete functional limitations to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
identify disparities in 19 health and social indicators. Method: Using
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
as our conceptual framework, we analyzed data from the combined
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2000-2008 National Health Interview Survey, comparing workers and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
nonworkers by severity of functional limitations, as measured by the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
FL12 Scale of Functional Limitation Severity. Results: Only 9.5\% of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
people reporting moderate/severe functional limitations worked. Although
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
not without exception, not working and severity of functional limitation
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
were associated with poorer health outcomes, with nonworkers reporting
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
severe/complete limitations having least optimal health. Prevalence of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
chronic conditions was associated with level of functional limitation
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
severity, with the strongest associations among nonworkers. Conclusions:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By focusing exclusively on people with functional limitations, we were
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
better able to examine factors contributing to health and participation
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of workers and nonworkers. People who worked and had moderate or
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
severe/complete limitations often did so while reporting poor health.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
With improved access to health care, health promotion activities, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
other support systems, the quality of life and likelihood of work
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
participation of people with greater functional limitations might also
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
be improved.'
