This study aims to investigate how cognitive functioning, well-being, and physical activity affect the relationship between occupation and mortality caused by occupational and self-inflicted injury.
The scientific rationale stems from evidence that each of the aforementioned parameters might play a role in explaining the association between occupation and mortality. However, previous studies mostly focused on one-to-one relationships between occupation and other variables.
The findings can inform the development of better public health and occupational health policies as well as interventions towards improving well-being and reducing occupation-related risks.
