Robust standard errors in parentheses; π1 stands for the probability that an observation is in comp1; *** p < 0.01, ** p < 0.05, * p < 0.1. Model 1 presents the baseline specification. An additional covariate, workplace social support, is added in model 2. In model 3, we add individual's health status (HUI), province of residence and occupational fixed effects.
