Job strain as a risk factor for clinical depression
Background Adverse psychosocial working environments characterized by job strain (the combination of high demands and low control at work) are associated with an increased risk of depressive symptoms among employees, but evidence on clinically diagnosed depression is scarce. We examined job strain as a risk factor for clinical depression. Method We identified published cohort studies from a systematic literature search in PubMed and PsycNET and o…
Are intrinsic motivational factors of work associated with functional incapacity similarly regardless of the country
Background: Many psychosocial models of wellbeing at work emphasise the role of intrinsic motivational factors such as job autonomy, job complexity, and innovativeness. However, little is known about whether the employees of multinational enterprises differ from country to country with regard to intrinsic motivational factors, and whether these factors are associated with wellbeing similarly in the different countries. The purpose of this study w…
Is the effect of work stress on cardiovascular mortality confounded by socioeconomic factors in the Valmet study
Epigenetic regulators and transcription factors establish distinct regulatory networks for gene regulation to maintain the embryonic stem cells (ESC) state. Although much has been learned regarding individual epigenetic regulators, their combinatorial functions remain elusive. Here, we report combinatorial functions of histone demethylases (HDMs) in gene regulation of mouse ESCs that are currently unknown. We generated a histone demethylome (HDMo…
Employee control over working times
Study objective: To investigate the impact of employees' worktime control on health, taking into account other aspects of job control. Design: Analysis of questionnaire data in 1997 and register data on sickness absence during 1996–1998. Setting: Eight towns in Finland. Participants: 6442 municipal employees (1490 men and 4952 women) representing the staff of the towns studied. Follow up was 17 706 person years. Main results: In women, poor healt…
Selection from fixed term to permanent employment
Study objective: To examine health, job satisfaction, and behavioural risks as antecedents of selection from fixed term to permanent employment. Design: Prospective cohort study of change in employment contract during a two year period. Self reported health, recorded sickness absence, job satisfaction, behavioural risks, demographics, and occupational characteristics were assessed at baseline. Setting: Hospital staff in two Finnish hospital distr…
Employment security and health
Objective: To study the relation of contractual and perceived employment security to employee health. Design: Cross sectional survey. Setting: Municipal sector employees in eight Finnish towns. Participants: 5981 employees with a permanent contract and 2786 employees with a non-permanent contract (2194 fixed term contract, 682 government subsidised contract). Outcome measures: Poor self rated health, chronic disease, and psychological distress. R…
