Long-term labour market outcomes of anorexia nervosa – the Northern Finland birth cohort 1986
This study highlights the association between AN and poor labour market outcomes, particularly regarding income accumulation. More effective strategies are needed to identify and support individuals with AN, especially males, who tend to experience worse outcomes. Increasing awareness of AN among students and in workplaces, enhancing collaboration between services, and implementing early, cost-effective interventions are essential for improving labour market prospects.
