Correlates of high psychological distress for men and women participating in the Partnering Healthy@Work 2010 survey.

1PR, Prevalence Ratio; CI, Confidence Interval.

2ERI, Effort-Reward Imbalance tertiles.

3ROC, Area under the Receiver Operating Characteristics curve

- Models for men and women were calculated separately.

- Reference categories: married or defacto, permanent employment, not risky alcohol, not daily smoker, ERI lower tertile. Age, state service tenure and BMI are continuous variables.

- Omitted categories, designated with a ‘-‘ identify that the variable did not make a contribution (p>0.05) to the ROC.
