Health Status (BRFSS) Charts
Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS), 2016-2020

This chart shows the prevalence among workers of identifying their general health status as fair or poor. See the data dictionary for definitions of Health Status.When charting by occupation or industry, you may choose between adjusted or unadjusted results. When charting by demographic variables, the “Advanced” button will allow you to either “filter” to see results for a single industry, or “group” to see results for multiple industries. Hovering the mouse pointer over the chart bars will show more information or allow you to drill down to more detailed industries or occupations (if available).Please note that BRFSS population estimates are not national estimates, as data are limited to those states that collected industry and occupation information.
