Strengths of this study include use of a large cohort, use of occupation grade as an individual's measure of SES in a stratified sample of working environment within the UK civil service independent of racial and ethnic effects, adjustments for proxies of lean body mass, and use of the recently devised CKD-EPI equation to estimate GFR.
We included in the sample those women who were classified as a 'homemaker' and not part of traditional, paid employment by assigning an occupational risk grade based on a review of occupation activity risk found in fifteen occupations with components found in homemaking (e.g., primary/nursery teachers, cleaners, launderers, care assistants).
A scoring system for grading rurality was developed on the basis of occupation and address.
Within this, the type of occupation, the position, the employment grade, the start and end of the occupational phase were collected.
Productivity, as well as scaling-up of priority interventions, may also be negatively affected by imbalances in the skill mix – the mix of grades and occupations within a given health service.
