Abstract: Research on health in self-employment shows mixed findings, partly due to limited focus on heterogeneity within self-employment, physical health outcomes and reliance on self-reported, cross-sectional data. This study addresses these gaps by identifying self-employment types using the ‘precarious employment framework’ and examining their association with cardiovascular health conditions in Sweden.
