Abstract Introduction Obesity and depression both represent major public health challenges. The study aim is to investigate prevalence rates of depression, obesity and comorbid conditions and their associated factors in a German working-age population-based sample. Methods Analyses were conducted on n = 5784 participants (18-67 years) from the baseline survey of the LIFE-Adult-Study. The survey included assessments of e.g. depression (CES-D), obesity (BMI), SES, physical activity (IPAQ), and job characteristics based on O*NET (e.g. freedom to make decisions). Binary logistic regressions were applied to investigate risk factors. Results The sample had a mean age of 43.4 (SD=12.5) years, and n = 3129 (54.1%) were female. The prevalence rates were 4.5 % (n = 281) for depression, 15.3 % (n = 1205) for obesity and 1.2 % (n = 101) for comorbid conditions. Binary logistic regression showed significant associations between comorbid conditions and e.g. female gender (OR 1.8 [1.0; 3.1], p<.05), higher age groups (35-49 years: OR 6.0 [2.3; 16.1], p<.001; 50-67 years: OR 14.9 [5.2; 42.5], p<.001) compared to the young, being widowed (OR 3.4 [1.0; 11.5], p<.05), lower SES, higher freedom to make decisions (OR 1.9 [1.1; 3.2], p<.05), and lower physical activity. Discussion The results show that a substantial proportion of working-age people are affected by depression, obesity, or a comorbid condition. Identifying people at high risk for developing these conditions is important to provide tailored services to improve (mental) health and to maintain ability to work. Conclusion More high quality long-term studies are needed to examine the impact of modifiable work context factors.
