Methods: A cross-sectional study with 7,302 full-time employees was conducted. Results: Men had a higher prevalence of overweight/obesity than women. Explanatory risk models, adjusted for age, sex, and physical activity, identified age, male sex, low physical activity, ex-smoking status, moderate to high meat consumption, high cured meat consumption and high sugary drink consumption as associated factors for overweight/obesity. Over time, surveys revealed a decrease in physical activity, increased alcohol consumption, and more rotating and night shifts. Despite these changes, the overall prevalence of overweight/obesity remained unchanged. Conclusions: Older men are at a higher risk of overweight and obesity, with key factors including low physical activity, ex-smoking status, and high consumption of meat, cured meat, and sugary drinks.engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Relationships between work, lifestyles, and obesity: comparative analysis between the Spanish National Health Survey 2017 and the European Health Survey 2020 in Spainjournal article1536-5948https://doi.org/10.1097/jom.0000000000003453https://journals.lww.com/joem/pages/default.aspxembargoed access61Dietary habitsObesityOverweightPhysical activityWorkersCiencias Biomédicas32 Ciencias Médicas
