This study investigated the relationship of occupational class and educational background with proportional mortality ratios in Korea.
Mortality was investigated using the entire registered death data from 1993 to 2004, obtained from the Korean National Statistics Office. Proportional mortality ratios (PMRs) for specific diseases were calculated according to the occupational class and educational background of men aged 20-64.
Manual workers were found to have higher PMRs for liver disease and traffic accidents, as did the lower educated group. Especially, this study showed trends of an increasing of the wide gap between lower and higher socioeconomic stati for liver disease, traffic accidents, diabetes mellitus and cerebral vascular disease. The mortality for cerebrovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, heart disease, traffic accident and liver disease showed increasing trends according to the calendar year for the lower than the higher social class.
The specific conditions that had higher PMRs in the Korean lower social class were liver disease and traffic accidents. Especially, there was an increasing trend for a widening of the gap between manual and non-manual groups in relation to mortality from liver disease, diabetes mellitus and traffic accidents.
本研究调查了韩国职业阶层和教育背景与比例死亡率之间的关系。
使用从韩国国家统计局获得的1993年至2004年的全部登记死亡数据进行死亡率调查。根据20 - 64岁男性的职业阶层和教育背景计算特定疾病的比例死亡率（PMR）。
发现体力劳动者以及受教育程度较低的群体患肝病和交通事故的比例死亡率较高。特别是，本研究显示出在肝病、交通事故、糖尿病和脑血管疾病方面，社会经济地位较低和较高群体之间的差距呈扩大趋势。对于脑血管疾病、糖尿病、心脏病、交通事故和肝病，社会阶层较低者的死亡率随历年呈上升趋势，高于社会阶层较高者。
韩国社会阶层较低者中比例死亡率较高的特定情况是肝病和交通事故。特别是，在肝病、糖尿病和交通事故死亡率方面，体力劳动者和非体力劳动者群体之间的差距呈扩大趋势。
