Objective:
To assess associations between self-perceived mental well-being, work capacity, and sustained work participation (SWP) in a cohort of the Swedish working population.
Methods:
Cross-sectional survey data based on 7618 employees were linked to national registers to assess SWP over 1 year. Binary logistic regression models, including interaction terms, were used to examine the main and moderation effects.
Results:
In the adjusted regression model, the Capacity to Work Index (C2WI) was independently and significantly associated with SWP. For each 1-point increase in C2WI, the odds of SWP decreased by 6% in women and 8% in men.
Conclusions:
This study demonstrates that self-perceived capacity to work is an important determinant of SWP. Although mental well-being is important from a public health perspective, efforts to improve cognitive and mental work capacity are vital for SWP.
