We analysed the effects of the Spanish economic recession in terms of self-rated health, its differential effect among genders and its influence on gender gap. Study design: Repeated cross-sectional study using Spanish health surveys (2001–2014). Methods: Logistic regression models were conducted to explore the association between self-rated health and employment status and its evolution over time and gender. To test the impact of the economic recession, pooled data regression models were conducted. Results: In this study, we considered 104,577 subjects. During the last 15 years, women have entered the labour market, leading to wide changes in the Spanish traditional family roles. Instead of an increasing proportion of women workers, gender employment differences persist. Therefore, in 2014, the prevalence of workers was 55.77% in men, whereas in women, it was 44.01%. Self-rated health trends during the economic recession differ by gender, with women improving slightly their self-rated health from a low self-rated health prevalence of 38.76% in 2001 to 33.78% in 2014. On the contrary, men seem more vulnerable to employment circumstances, which have led to substantial reduction in the gender gap. Conclusions: Although a gender gap persists, the change in socio-economic roles seems to increase women's self-rated health, reducing this gap. It is important to promote women's labour market inclusion, even in economic recession periods. 000101246 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aby-nc-nd$$uhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/ 000101246 590__ $$a1.696$$b2018 000101246 591__ $$aPUBLIC, ENVIRONMENTAL & OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH$$b75 / 162 = 0.463$$c2018$$dQ2$$eT2 000101246 591__ $$aPUBLIC, ENVIRONMENTAL & OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH$$b109 / 185 = 0.589$$c2018$$dQ3$$eT2 000101246 592__ $$a0.847$$b2018 000101246 593__ $$aPublic Health, Environmental and Occupational Health$$c2018$$dQ2 000101246 593__ $$aMedicine (miscellaneous)$$c2018$$dQ2 000101246 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion 000101246 700__ $$aCarrera Lasfuentes, P. 000101246 700__ $$aSánchez Recio, R. 000101246 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-6688-2435$$aAlonso, J.P.$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000101246 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-6671-5661$$aRabanaque, M.J.$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000101246 7102_ $$11008$$2615$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDpto.
