abstract: 'Even though labor market flexibility continues to be a source of grave
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
concern in terms of employment instability, as evidenced by temporary
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment, only a few longitudinal studies have examined the effects of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment instability on the health status of wage workers. Against
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
this backdrop, this study assesses the manner in which changes in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment type affect the health status of wage workers. The data
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
originate from the Korean Labor and Income Panel Study''s health-related
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
surveys for the first through fourth years (n = 1,789; 1998 to 2001).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This study estimates potential damage to self-rated health through the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
application of a generalized estimating equation, according to specific
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
levels of employment instability. While controlling for age,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
socioeconomic position, marital status, health behavior, and access to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
health care, the study analysis confirms that changes in employment type
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
exert significant and adverse effects on health status for a given year
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(OR = 1.47; 95\% CI 1.10-1.96), to an extent comparable to the marked
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
effects of smoking on human health (OR = 1.47; 95\% CI 1.05-2.04). Given
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the global prevalence of labor flexibility, policy interventions must be
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
implemented if employment instability triggers broad discrepancies not
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
only in social standing, wage, and welfare benefits, but also in health
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
status.'
