Occupational and sex differences in active commuting among Canadian workers from 2006 to 2016
Articles and reports: 82-003-X202400900001Description: Active commuting (AC) to and from work is associated with numerous health benefits, through increased physical activity. This study examined whether occupation types and part-time work, by sex, were associated with AC in a population-based sample of Canadian workers. This study examined the associations between occupational classifications, part-time work, and AC (i.e., walking, cycling) and public transit use, in a nationally representative sample of Canadian adults, while controlling for other relevant sociodemographic characteristics (e.g., education, income, urbanity). This study also explored how associations between occupational classifications and AC differed by sex and how AC rates may have changed over time. no: 9Issue Number: 2024009Volume: 35Author(s): Christopher, Gabriella; Biswas, Aviroop; Lang, Justin J.; Prince, Stephanie A.DOI: https://doi.org/10.25318/82-003-x202400900001-engMain Product:Health Reports
