Release date: 2009-12-17 - 33. Obesity on the job - Open in new window/tab ArchivedArticles and reports: 75-001-X200910213225Geography: CanadaDescription:

While low income is associated with obesity for women, high income is a factor for men. A common factor for both sexes is low education.

- 35. Depression at work - Open in new window/tab ArchivedArticles and reports: 75-001-X200711113198Geography: CanadaDescription:
Worldwide, depression is the leading cause of years lived with disability. It can affect many aspects of life, including work. In fact, the impact of depression on job performance has been estimated to be greater than that of chronic conditions. In 2002, almost 4% of employed Canadians aged 25 to 64 had had an episode of depression in the previous year. These workers had high odds of reducing work activity because of a long-term health condition, having at least one mental health disability day in the past two weeks, and being absent from work in the past week. In addition, depression was associated with reduced work activity and disability days two years later.

- Journals and periodicals: 82-003-X202600100001Description: The prevalence of mood and anxiety disorders has risen in Canada over the past decade, and a large proportion of affected individuals do not receive professional help. This study used data from the 2022 Mental Health and Access to Care Survey to understand how sociodemographic factors, including age, gender, immigrant status, population group, and household income, were associated with mental health care service use (talked to a health professional about their mental health; and/or received counselling or therapy services in the 12 months before completing the survey) among people who met the criteria for selected mood or anxiety disorders.Release date: 2026-01-21

This study examines whether predisposing characteristics such as immigrant status, population group, rural or urban status, sexual orientation, and neighbourhood income level are correlated with the prevalence of receiving mental health services and substance use disorders, access to formal health supports, and satisfaction with these supports among girls and young women in Canada.Release date: 2025-05-21

- Articles and reports: 82-003-X202401100002Description: Compared with their cisgender heterosexual peers, youth who are Two-Spirit, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer and those who use other terms related to gender or sexual diversity (2SLGBTQ+) are at elevated risk for mental health difficulties and suicidality. The social experiences of 2SLGBTQ+ youth, including the impact of minority stress, access to social support, and experiences of negative social interactions, may contribute to this disparity. The purpose of this study is to describe the mental health and service use of 2SLGBTQ+ youth compared with those of their cisgender heterosexual peers and (2) examine the role of young people’s social support and negative social interactions in explaining mental health inequities between 2SLGBTQ+ youth and their peers.Release date: 2024-11-20
