abstract: 'Objective The study investigates the trends in health-related

  inequalities in paid employment among men and women in different

  educational groups in 26 countries in 5 European regions.

  Design Individual-level analysis of repeated cross-sectional annual data

  (2005-2014) from the EU Statistics on Income and Living Conditions.

  Setting 26 European countries in 5 European regions.

  Participants 1 844 915 individuals aged 30-59 years were selected with

  information on work status, chronic illness, educational background, age

  and gender.

  Outcome measures Absolute differences were expressed by absolute

  differences in proportion in paid employment between participants with

  and without a chronic illness, using linear regression. Relative

  differences were expressed by prevalence ratios in paid employment,

  using a Cox proportional hazard model. Linear regression was used to

  examine the trends of inequalities.

  Results Participants with a chronic illness had consistently lower

  labour force participation than those without illnesses. Educational

  inequalities were substantial with absolute differences larger within

  lower educated (men 21\%-35\%, women 10\%-31\%) than within higher

  educated (men 5\%-13\%, women 6\%-16\%). Relative differences showed

  that low-educated men with a chronic illness were 1.4-1.9 times (women

  1.3-1.8 times) more likely to be out of paid employment than

  low-educated persons without a chronic illness, whereas this was 1.1-1.2

  among high-educated men and women. In the Nordic, Anglo-Saxon and

  Eastern regions, these health-related educational inequalities in paid

  employment were more pronounced than in the Continental and Southern

  region. For most regions, absolute health-related educational

  inequalities in paid employment were generally constant, whereas

  relative inequalities increased, especially among low-educated persons.

  Conclusions Men and women with a chronic illness have considerable less

  access to the labour market than their healthy colleagues, especially

  among lower educated persons. This exclusion from paid employment will

  increase health inequalities.'
