OCCUPATIONAL STRESS

Studies have shown an association between occupational stress and "health risk behaviors." Occupational stress has shown to be linked with an increase in alcohol consumption among men and an increase in body weight.

General working conditions that induce occupational stress may also be aspects of the physical environment of one's job. For example, the noise level, lighting, and temperature are all components of one's working environment. If these factors are not adequate for a successful working environment, one can experience changes in mood and arousal, which in turn creates more difficulty to successfully do the job right.

HEALTH EQUITY

https://jech.bmj.com/content/jech/57/4/254.full.pdf


 * Health equity comes from being disadvantaged in the social determinants of health
 * For people who are already deprived in certain social determinants of health such as "wealth, power, or prestige," health inequities put them at even more of a disadvantage in terms of health outcomes
 * Equity= ethic and human rights principle and fairness
 * Heath does not mean no disease
 * Includes mental and physical well being
 * Not the same as equality
 * Equity refers to the distribution/ allocation of certain resources while equality refers to whether or not something is fair
 * However, equality is important to have in order to achieve equity
 * Human rights are intertwined and need to be looked at together
 * Health is a human right

The opposite of health equity is health inequity,which Among individuals who are already deprived of these three determinants, health inequities bring an even greater level of disadvantage than what they already have.
