Relative risk ratios (RRRs) from multinomial regression analysis, with 95% confidence intervals (CI) within brackets. Statistically significant estimates (p < 0.05) in bold
Trajectory 1: Long education into stable employment (29.1%, n = 143); Trajectory 2: Medium education into stable employment (22.2%, n = 109); Trajectory 3: Short education into stable employment (31.5%, n = 155); Trajectory 4: Continuously unstable situation (17.3%, n = 85)
