  • Adjusted OR and their 95% CIs from multilevel multinomial logistic regression models are shown. Number of participants = 31 373, number of work units = 2967.

  • *Risk factors are current smoker, BMI ⩾25 kg/m2, physically inactive and heavy drinker, where inactive individuals have <2 MET-hours/day and heavy drinkers are women and men who consume on average ⩾190 g and ⩾275 g of absolute alcohol per week, respectively; †the intra-class correlation was 22%.

  • BMI, body mass index; 95% CI, 95% confidence interval; MET, metabolic equivalent task; OR, odds ratio.
