Overindebted, unsupported and lonely, and mentally stressed and depressed—exploring the relationship between overindebtedness, social disconnectedness and poor mental health in a population-based Swis…
The very poor mental health status of overindebted people cannot be completely attributed to the strong association between overindebtedness and social disconnectedness that was found in this study and shown for the first time
Overindebtedness, unemployment, and poor mental health – and the role of sense of control: A population-based Swiss study
Background Both overindebtedness and unemployment are critical life events that can result in or lead to poor mental health. What is less known is that the two partly interrelated events frequently go along with a feeling of loss or lack of control in life, which could be the main reason why they are associated with poor mental health. This has not been examined in previous research, particularly not in this combination. Methods This study used a…
Health and well-being at work: The key role of supervisor support
This study aims to explore whether and in what way social support from different sources and domains makes an additional or different and independent contribution to various health and work-related outcomes. Cross-sectional data were used from an employee survey among the workforces of four service companies from different industries in Switzerland. The study sample covered 5,877 employees of working age. The lack of social support from a spouse,…
Impact of Parenthood, Informal Caregiving and its Combination on Self-Rated Health - a Population-Based Study in Switzerland
Which Life Domains Impact Most on Self-Rated Health? A Cross-Cultural Study of Switzerland and its Neighbors
The Work–Home Interface: Linking Work‐Related Wellbeing and Volunteer Work
An abundance of research shows the benefits of participation in volunteer work for individuals, employers and the society as a whole. However, relatively little is known about the precursors of volunteer work. In this study, we aim to fill this gap by investigating to what extent work‐related well‐being can function as a driver of volunteer work. Moreover, building on the Conservations of Resources Theory (Hobfoll, , ), we propose that the relati…
The experience of work-life balance across family-life stages in Switzerland: A cross-sectional questionnaire-based study
Results are discussed in terms of a gendered work-life experience across the life course and the need for part-time work for both genders. Finally, conclusions are drawn concerning our results' implications for public health considerations
Exploring the Interaction Between Volunteering Status, Paid Job Characteristics and Quality of Volunteers’ Motivation on Mental Health
The literature on the health-promoting effects of community work has primarily dealt with the population in retirement age, yet the vast majority of volunteers are people still in the workforce. The aim of this study is to observe the relationship between volunteering and health within the context of working life, considering paid work conditions and motives to volunteer as moderating variables. We conducted an online survey with a sample of Swis…
The contribution of lifestyle and work factors to social inequalities in self-rated health among the employed population in Switzerland
Bridging Occupational, Organizational and Public Health: A Transdisciplinary Approach
Zwischen Zwei Kulturen: Spannungen Konflikte und Ihre Bewältigung Bei der Zweiten Ausländergeneration
The social gradient in work and health: A cross-sectional study exploring the relationship between working conditions and health inequalities
The findings suggest a more differentiated pattern of the commonly found social gradient in health and the differential role of work in this respect
Persistent work-life conflict and health satisfaction - A representative longitudinal study in Switzerland
Both time-based and strain-based work-life conflict are strongly correlated to health satisfaction. However, no evidence was found for a persistent work-life conflict leading to poor health satisfaction
Work-life conflict and associations with work- and nonwork-related factors and with physical and mental health outcomes: A nationally representative cross-sectional study in Switzerland
This important issue which up to now has been largely neglected in public health research needs to be addressed in future public health research and, if the findings are confirmed by subsequent (longitudinal) studies, to be considered in workplace health promotion and interventions in Switzerland as elsewhere
Zwischen zwei Kulturen
Das Buch handelt von der zweiten Ausländergeneration in der Schweiz und liefert einen auch über die Schweiz hinaus wichtigen Beitrag und Erkenntnissgewinn zur Migrationssoziologie. \nMittels eines Vergleichs mit der einheimischen Gleichaltrigengruppe wird die gerne als problematisch sowie konflikt- und spannungsreich dargestellte Lebenssituation der zweiten Generation untersucht.
