Physicians' working life tables are constructed to summarize the New York State physicians' activity patterns. Male physicians could be expected to spend 47.0 years in full-time activity, 65 per cent of their total lifetime. Female physicians could be expected to spend 41.3 years, 53 per cent of their total lifetime, in full-time activity. Full-time activity refers to working 30 hours or more per week in clinical practice, research, teaching, or other professional activity.
