Assessing the performance of a novel Finnish register-based measure of precarious employment
As an important driver of inequality in the labor market, it is crucial to develop measures to assess precarious employment. Most previous measures have been survey-based. We used register data on wage-earners aged 20–64 residing in Finland in 2013 (N = 1 873 210) to develop a novel measure of precarious employment, including items on job discontinuity, multijob holding, agency employment, underemployment, and employment income. We assessed the p…
Precarious employment and mental health
This study investigated the moderating role of household disposable income and family type on the association between precarious employment (PE) and diagnosed mental disorders. This longitudinal study used register data from the Swedish Work, Illness, and Labour-market Participation (SWIP) cohort. The study population included all individuals aged 27–65 who were employed in 2016 (n = 2,509,229). Precarious employment was measured using the Swedis…
Labour market exit routes in high- and low-educated older workers before and after social insurance and retirement policy reforms in Sweden
Few previous studies have investigated how socioeconomic differences in labour market exit have changed after restrictions in social insurance policies. The aim of this register-based study is to investigate how early labour market exit pathways among older men and women with different levels of education changed after major restrictive social insurance and retirement policy reforms in Sweden. Cohort 1 (pre-reform) consisted of individuals who we…
Être une femme et jouer à l’Olympique Lyonnais
Si les footballeuses de l’Olympique Lyonnais disposent d’un palmarès sportif inégalé (16 fois championnes de France, 9 fois vainqueures de la Coupe de France et 8 fois de la Ligue des championnes de l’UEFA), elles restent cependant dans l’ombre des hommes, notamment au niveau de la production littéraire et scientifique. Inspirée des apports de la micro-histoire, de l’approche biographique et des études de genre, l’article investit une « face cach…
Precarious work on the rise
Precarious employment (PE) is non-standard employment with uncertain and unstable contract duration, low wages, and limited labour protections and rights. Research has associated PE with workers' poor mental health and well-being; however, this association has been studied primarily using quantitative methods. This qualitative study seeks to examine the mechanisms between PE and mental health in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic in Ontario, Ca…
Causal effect of shifting from precarious to standard employment on all-cause mortality in Sweden
BACKGROUND: We aimed at estimating the causal effect of switching from precarious to standard employment on the 6-year and 12-year risk of all-cause mortality among workers aged 20-55 years in Sweden. METHODS: We emulated a series of 12 target trials starting every year between 2005 and 2016 using Swedish register data (n=251 273). We classified precariously employed individuals using a multidimensional approach at baseline as (1) remaining in pr…
Precarious employment in early adulthood and later mental health problems
BACKGROUND: Precarious employment is a determinant of self-reported mental health problems among young adults. Less is known about more severe and objectively measured health outcomes, such as mental health problems requiring inpatient care. The current study aims to investigate the effect of precarious employment in early adulthood on later mental health problems requiring inpatient care. METHOD: A register-based cohort study, based on the Swedi…
Experiences of insecurity among non-standard workers across different welfare states
Educational qualification differences and early labor market exit among men
Exposure to labor market marginalization across the working life was important in explaining educational differences in early labor market exit due to disability pension or sickness absence and unemployment. This study underscores the importance of identifying and implementing preventive measures in the workplace (e.g. adaptions) to prevent new spells of sickness absence and unemployment, especially among low educated individuals
Precarious Employment and Psychosocial Hazards
Precarious employment (PE) has been linked to adverse health effects, possibly mediated through psychosocial hazards. The aim of this cross-sectional study is to explore if higher levels of PE are associated with psychosocial hazards (experiences of violence, sexual harassment, bullying, discrimination, high demands, and low control) and to explore gender differences in these patterns. The study is based on survey- and register data from a sample…

Precarious employment and mental health
Inequalities in employment rates among older men and women in Canada, Denmark, Sweden and the UK
Our results suggest that educational level, sex and health all play a role in extending working lives. The variation in employment rates between the four countries implies that policies do matter, but that social differentials show that policies cannot be 'one size fits all'. Policy-makers must consider different groups (i.e. low-educated women with a LLI) when designing policies to extend working lives
Precarious employment is a risk factor for poor mental health in young individuals in Sweden
This study supported the hypothesis that precarious employment should be regarded as an important social determinant for subsequent development of mental health problems in previously mentally healthy young people
