Escaping in-work poverty and mental health: A longitudinal study of Swedish workers
In-work poverty (IWP) affects individuals who are employed but have an equivalised disposable household income below 60% of the national median. While IWP is associated with poorer mental health, it remains unclear whether escaping IWP reduces mental health risk or whether adverse effects persist after upward mobility. This study examines whether escaping IWP reduces mental health risk in Sweden, and whether moving moderately versus substantially…
Is overqualification a stepping stone for career progression among children of immigrants
Overqualification is one of the key labor market disadvantages that the children of immigrants born in the host society––the second-generation (G2)––disproportionately experience compared to the majority population. A higher prevalence of overqualification among the G2 may result from their strategic choice to circumvent persistent unemployment but also from the use of overqualification as a stepping stone into adequate employment ––as predicted …
Labor market disadvantages and mental health among the second-generation children of immigrants in Sweden. A population cohort study
Children of immigrants born in the host country -the second generation (G2)-face higher risks of unemployment and overqualification compared to the majority native population in Western Europe. While the health effects of unemployment and overqualification are well documented, it remains unclear whether these factors impact the mental health of the G2 in the same way as in the majority population. This study uses Swedish register data to examine …
Overqualification Among Second-Generation Children of Immigrants in the Swedish Labour Market
Research on the children of immigrants born in the host country (G2) consistently reveals disparities between their educational achievements and labour market outcomes compared to the majority population. This study provides new insights into understanding this disparity by examining patterns of overqualification—i.e., a downward educational mismatch—among the G2. Specifically, it explores 1) how overqualification patterns differ between the G2, …
