Under 2020-2022 mortality conditions, a 35-year-old male manager will live, on average, 5.3 years longer than a blue-collar worker. The gap is smaller for women (3.4 years). Blue-collar workers are more than twice as likely to die between ages 35 and 65 as managers, and 1.7 times as likely to die between ages 65 and 75. Since the 1990s, the gap in life expectancy between male managers and blue-collar workers has narrowed (-1.7 years), while the gap for women has widened slightly (+0.8 years).
At age 35, the difference in life expectancy between higher education graduates and those without a certificate is 8.0 years for men and 5.4 years for women. There is a gradient in education for men: the higher the certificate, the higher the life expectancy. Among women, the difference in life expectancy between those with and without a certificate is significant, but the difference among those with a certificate remains limited.
Regardless of socio-occupational group, women live longer than men. Blue-collar women even have a slightly higher life expectancy than male managers.
