“…Administrative and related occupations may be mentally and psychologically demanding, while the trade-related occupations may be rather physically demanding. Thus, both may be a significant source of stress, which is a risk factor for migraine [3,4,20]. The fact the migraine is not highly prevalent in these groups is probably due to the fact that these types of job are also characterized by a high level of control and regulation.…”

“…Many are the risk factors that are associated with migraine. Among the modifiable risk factors, work-related stressors have recently been found to be associated with migraine onset [4]. As a matter of fact, the work may influence the health of a person in many ways, e. g. through working hours, shift or non-shift work, responsibility load, and healthy environment among others.…”

“…A growing body of evidence suggests that work stress may predict a variety of health problems, such as depression, cardiovascular and muscoloskeletal diseases [5,[14][15][16], but little is known about a possible correlation between migraine and work-related factors [4]. Also, all issues related to work activity are country-specific to a certain extent, and the studies we referred to addressed the association between some work-related issues and migraine, taking into account the cultural and geographical specificity.…”

Migraine represents one of the most prevalent neurological conditions worldwide. It is a disabling condition with high impact on the working situation of migraineurs. Interestingly, gender-related differences regarding an association of migraine with important occupational characteristics has been hardly studied. The current study scrutinizes gender-specific differences in the prevalence of migraine across a broad spectrum of occupational categories, shedding also light on associations with important job-related features such as shift work, job satisfaction, and physical activity. The study included data from 415 712 participants from the UK Biobank cohort, using the official ICD10 diagnosis of migraine and other health conditions as selection criteria. Prevalence ratios of migraineurs compared to healthy controls among different occupational categories and job-related variables were estimated using log-binomial regression analyses. Statistical models were adjusted for important sociodemographic features such as age, BMI, ethnicity, education and neuroticism. To better highlight specific differences between men and women we stratified by sex. We detected a differential prevalence pattern in relation to different job categories between men and women. Especially in men, migraine appears to be more prevalent in highly physically demanding occupations (PR 1.38, 95\% CI [0.93, 2.04]). Furthermore, migraine is also more prevalent in jobs that frequently involve shift or night shift work compared to healthy controls. Interestingly, this prevalence is especially high in women (shift work PR 1.45, 95\% CI [1.14, 1.83], night shift work PR 1.46, 95\% CI [0.93, 2.31]). Our results show that higher migraine prevalence is associated with physically demanding jobs and shift working.
