Trajectories of work disability and unemployment among young adults with common mental disorders.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Labour-market marginalisation (LMM) and common mental disorders (CMDs) are serious societal problems. The aims were to describe trajectories of LMM (both work disability and unemployment) among young adults with and without CMDs, and to elucidate the characteristics associated with these trajectories.

Multinomial logistic regressions investigated the associations between sociodemograp
