Nursing Times; 111: 42, 20-21. The article discusses how the distribution of health mirrors that of wealth. Poor health correlates with poor material circumstances but health inequalities persist across all classes. health inequalities are more often seen in cultures where there is a more pronounced material in health and well-being across the UK are signifi-cantly influenced by Social and economic inequality, which is largely indicated by occupation and income or, more broadly, Social class . There is an established link between low income and poor health , and a definitive correlation between health and occupa-tion, with insecure, poorly paid work having a detrimental impact on health and wellbeing (Marmot et al, 2010).
least health inequalities are seen in cul-tures with the smallest income differen-tials and greater social cohesion. The social gradient of health is influ-enced by the existence of relative depriva-tion. The poorer health of middle-income earners relative to the most affluent is less to do with the absolute amount of income
