New data soon available for research
This year's data collection within SLOSH is complete. It will soon be possible for researchers to access new data on living conditions and health in Sweden.
Since 2006, SLOSH has regularly distributed surveys to a sample of the Swedish population with questions about working life, everyday life and health. This year, nearly 53,000 individuals were invited to participate, including about 3,500 new respondents. The SLOSH research team will now begin compiling and quality-assuring the collected responses. This year’s finalised data are expected to be available to researchers early next year.

The Swedish Longitudinal Occupational Survey of Health (SLOSH)
SLOSH is an internationally leading panel study that elucidates how various aspects of people's working lives, private lives and health interact over time. Research based on SLOSH contribute to increased knowledge that may serve as an important basis for efforts to improve public health.
SLOSH is located at the Stress Research Institute, a part of the Department of Psychology, Stockholm University.
Project leader for SLOSH is Hugo Westerlund, professor of epidemiology.
