Type 2 diabetes severity in the workforce: An occupational sector analysis using German claims data
The study displayed gender, age group and occupational sector differences in T2D severity and its trends. Working individuals could thus benefit from personalized prevention interventions that consider occupational contexts. As a next step, examining T2D trends and severity in specific occupations within the vulnerable occupational sectors is needed.
