Trust in the welfare state among users
This study examined user trust in Nav among groups receiving various benefits and assistance from Nav. Based on institutional theory and research, the central hypothesis is that those users who have been allocated selective benefits involving discretionary judgments, especially social assistance, will have less trust in Nav than other users. In addition, users who are satisfied with the service they have received from their supervisors will repor…
Feelings of being socially excluded
This article aims (1) to investigate whether immigrants in the Norwegian population and their descendants differ in their feelings of being socially excluded from society compared with others born in Norway (‘natives’), and (2) to test empirically whether these differences reflect differences in human and economic capital (i.e., education, work, income, and material deprivation) and factors related to minority/majority issues, such as citizenship…
Sosial eksklusjon og opphopning av levekårsproblemer
I denne artikkelen blir det undersøkt i hvilken grad det er tendenser til at ulike levekårsproblemer hoper seg opp og rammer særskilte grupper i samfunnet i større grad enn andre. Det teoretiske utgangspunktet for artikkelen er litteraturen om sosial eksklusjon og hypotesen om kumulative ulemper, som blir satt opp mot teorien om risikosamfunnet og individualiseringshypotesen. Det empiriske grunnlaget for studien er de norske levekårsundersøkelsen…
Are low-skilled young people increasingly useless, and are men the losers among them
Claims that low-skilled young people, and especially the men among them, are being excluded from the labour market have been influential over recent decades, contributing to an increasing concern over the issue of early school leaving. In this study, we use high-quality administrative data and sequence analysis to investigate the school-to-work trajectories of three birth cohorts of early school leavers in Norway between the ages of 16 and 26. Ou…
Work and welfare‐state trajectories in Norway over two decades
In this study, we investigated the work and welfare‐state trajectories of three cohorts of middle‐aged Norwegian inhabitants over a period of two decades (1994–2014). The period of this study is particularly interesting because of an extensive welfare reform that was initiated in 2006 and completed in 2011. We addressed two questions: What were the most typical labour market and welfare‐state trajectories for middle‐aged people over the past two …
Digitalization, Street‐Level Bureaucracy and Welfare Users' Experiences
Internet/web‐based forms of communication have increasingly been implemented by welfare agencies. However, there have been few studies of the experiences of welfare service users and the consequences of new technology for welfare service users. To what extent is the new technology adopted by the Norwegian Welfare and Labour Organization (NAV) used, and how do the users apply and experience the new possibilities? Do screen‐to‐screen encounters rep…
His, Her, or Their Divorce? Marital Dissolution and Sickness Absence in Norway
The authors analyzed the effects of marital dissolution on sickness absence and discussed the social role, crisis, and social selection models as well as the impact of gender and children. They used administrative data that covers the Norwegian population for the years 1992-2008 and panel methods to investigate lags and leads of the effects of divorce, controlling for time-varying variables and time-constant unobserved factors. The results reveal…
Sickness Absence Among Immigrants in Norway
Non-Western immigrants in Norway have more sickness absence than other immigrants and native Norwegians. Measured in wages, income, and positions of authority, non-Western immigrants have less favourable jobs. Using panel data models and matching techniques, we examined whether occupational factors are associated with non-Western immigrants’ greater sickness absence. We found significantly more sickness absence (in terms of the probability and le…

Disability pension by occupational class - the impact of work-related factors
Workers in the skilled and unskilled manual classes had a substantial unexplained risk of disability pension. Work-related factors only had a moderate impact on the disability risk. Literature indicates an accumulation of hazards in the manual classes. This should be taken into account when interpreting the gradient in disability pension
Sickness Absence among Immigrants in Norway, 1992-2003
Utilizing register panel data (1992-2003), in this article we study long-term sickness absence among immigrants and ethnic Norwegians ( n = 200,022). The data contain detailed information on socio-economic background, labour market participation and social insurance benefits for all individuals aged between 16 and 67 years residing in Norway. We present four main findings: (1) There is no difference in sickness absence between ethnic Norwegians a…

Social Class and Sickness Absence in Norway
In this article we study class differences, as measured by the Erikson, Goldthorpe and Portocarero (EGP) class scheme, in long-term sickness absence, and, using data from three years of the Norwegian Level of Living Survey, we investigate the possible explanatory mechanisms for these differences in Norway. Our results show that there are class differences in sickness absence especially among men, but also among women. The two main underlying fact…
The Dynamics of Social Assistance Recipiency
There is considerable concern about long-term recipiency of social assistance in many western countries today. Social assistance is intended to be a temporary solution for unforeseen individual problems, but there are worries that long-term recipiency of social assistance may lead to dependency. In this article, the duration of social assistance periods are investigated using Norwegian administrative data covering the years 1992–2002. Two types o…
Poverty among households with children
The purpose of this study was to compare poverty among lone parent households and couple households with children in Norway and Germany. The study applied three different measurement strategies: income poverty, material deprivation and reception of social assistance. We found that income poverty and material deprivation rates are higher in Germany than in Norway and are also higher for lone parents than for couples with children. Our analysis of …
Unemployment and Marital Dissolution
This article investigates whether unemployment within a dyad increases the probability of marital dissolution in Norway. An eight year panel data set of 40,472 couple-year observations is used to study the impact of unemployment on the probability of marital dissolution controlling for other variables. Two topics related to the impact of unemployment on divorce are addressed. First, the question of the impact of social stress as a mediating facto…

The Ecological Effect of Unemployment on the Incidence of Very Low Birthweight in Norway and Sweden
Little attention has been paid to the ecological effects of unemployment, despite strong theory suggesting that being socially or economically connected to unemployed persons can induce illness. Theory suggests, for example, that the labor market experience of adult males should affect maternal and infant health. We advance this line of inquiry by testing the hypothesis that quarterly increases in unemployment among Norwegian and Swedish males we…
