Overview

Systematic review and meta-analysis evaluates physical activity and cardiometabolic health across occupational groups, highlighting disparities tied to workplace movement patterns.

Key Points

  • To systematically evaluate device-measured physical activity, sedentary behaviour, and indicators of cardiometabolic health and fitness across distinct occupational categories.
  • Conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis registered under PROSPERO CRD42017070448.
  • Synthesized data from studies capturing accelerometer- or device-assessed physical activity, sedentary time, and cardiometabolic health profiles across various worker cohorts.
  • Quantified occupational variations in device-measured sedentary time and daily physical activity levels across different job categories.
  • Identified relationships between job-specific physical activity patterns and objective markers of cardiometabolic health and physical fitness.
