abstract: 'Women''s labor force participation has increased dramatically over the
past several decades. Although previous research has documented that a
wide array of labor market characteristics affect health, more work is
needed to understand how women are impacted by gender-specific
employment patterns and exposures. We examine a cohort of 659 employed
women from the Baltimore Epidemiologic Catchment Area (ECA) study in the
USA. Baseline and follow-up data collected 13 years apart are used to
identify associations between demographic, labor market, work
organization, and occupational gender inequality with four health
outcomes: generalized distress, depressive syndrome, anxiety and fair or
poor health. We also use gender-specific data on the workplace to create
indicators of occupational gender inequality.
We found wide gender inequalities in terms of pay and power in this
sample of employed women. Financial strain was associated with all of
our mental health outcomes with those reporting financial strain having
increased odds of distress, depressive syndrome and anxiety for the 13
years prior to the interview. Workplace factors that were found to be
associated with the four outcomes included experiencing a promotion or
demotion in the 13 years prior to the interview; working at a large
firm; and being a professional. Occupations where women compared to men
had lower levels of job strain-domestic workers in private households,
machine operator and transportation-showed increased risk for anxiety or
fair/poor health.
Our findings suggest that measuring the complexities of employment
including promotion or demotion history, firm characteristics and even
occupational gender inequality can yield important information about
associations with health among women. (C) 2003 Elsevier Ltd. All rights
