Perceived job insecurity and worker health in the United States
Social Science & Medicine, 09/09/09
Burgard SA et al. – Results show that persistent perceived job insecurity is a significant and substantively important predictor of poorer self–rated health in the American's Changing Lives (ACL) and Midlife in the United States (MIDUS) samples, and of depressive symptoms among ACL respondents. Job losses or unemployment episodes are associated with perceived job insecurity, but do not account for its association with health. Results are robust to controls for sociodemographic and job characteristics, negative reporting style, and earlier health and health behaviors.
