Table 5 Results of the generalized estimating equations (GEE) analyses of the association between informational justice (higher values indicate lower levels of perceived justice) and frequent sickness absence (2 periods or more during the previous 12 months), presented as risk ratios (RR) with 95% CIs

From: Interactional justice at work is related to sickness absence: a study using repeated measures in the Swedish working population
