abstract: 'Re-entering the labour market after a period of unemployment can be
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
challenging for seniors. This study investigates personal as well as
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
circumstantial barriers and facilitators of re-employment. Unemployed
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
seniors in Denmark (>= 50 years, n = 1636) from the first wave
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(mid-2018) of the SeniorWorkingLife study were prospectively followed
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
until March 2020 in national registers on labour market participation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Using weighted logistic-regression-modelled odds ratios (ORs), we
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
estimated the association between personal and circumstantial factors at
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
baseline and re-employment during follow-up. During follow-up, 28\%
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
re-entered paid employment. The desire to have a job (reference: not
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
having the desire to have a job) increased the likelihood of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
re-employment (OR 2.35, 95\% CI 1.14-4.85). Contrastingly, a higher age
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(60-63 vs. 50-54 years; OR 0.36, 95\% CI 0.16-0.79) and poor health (OR
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
0.32, 95\% CI 0.16-0.61) decreased the likelihood of re-employment. Sex,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
education and belief that age constitutes a barrier to re-employment
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
were not associated with the likelihood of re-employment. Unemployed
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
seniors desiring to have a job are more likely to get a job. However, a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
higher age and poor health are important barriers that should be taken
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
into account, e.g., by ensuring employment opportunities for these
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
groups in society.'
