Persson, Petra & Maya Rossin-Slater (2019): When dad can stay home: Fathers' workplace flexibility and maternal health. (NBER working paper 25902), Cambrige, Mass., 63 S. DOI:10.3386/w25902
Abstract
"While workplace flexibility is perceived to be a key determinant of maternal labor supply, less is known about fathers' demand for flexibility or about intra-household spillover effects of flexibility initiatives. This paper examines these issues in the context of a critical period in family life - the months immediately following childbirth - and identifies the impacts of paternal access to workplace flexibility on maternal postpartum health. We model household demand for paternal presence at home as a function of domestic stochastic shocks, and use variation from a Swedish reform that granted new fathers more flexibility to take intermittent parental leave during the postpartum period in a regression discontinuity difference-in-differences (RD-DD) design. We find that increasing the father's temporal flexibility reduces the risk of the mother experiencing physical postpartum health complications and improves her mental health. Our results suggest that mothers bear the burden from a lack of workplace flexibility - not only directly through greater career costs of family formation, as previously documented - but also indirectly, as fathers' inability to respond to domestic shocks exacerbates the maternal health costs of childbearing."

Woods, Megan, Rob Macklin, Sarah Dawkins & Angela Martin (2019): Mental illness, social suffering and structural antagonism in the labour process. In: Work, Employment and Society, Jg. 33, H. 6, S. 948-965. DOI:10.1177/0950017019866650
Abstract
"Workplace conditions and experiences powerfully influence mental health and individuals experiencing mental illness, including the extent to which people experiencing mental ill-health are 'disabled' by their work environments. This article explains how examination of the social suffering experienced in workplaces by people with mental illness could enhance understanding of the inter-relationships between mental health and workplace conditions, including experiences and characteristics of the overarching labour process. It examines how workplace perceptions and narratives around mental illness act as discursive resources to influence the social realities of people with mental ill-health. It applies Labour Process Theory to highlight how such discursive resources could be used by workers and employers to influence the power, agency and control in workplace environments and the labour process, and the implications such attempts might have for social suffering. It concludes with an agenda for future research exploring these issues." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Alcover, Carlos-María & Gabriela Topa (2018): Work characteristics, motivational orientations, psychological work ability and job mobility intentions of older workers. In: PLoS one, Jg. 13, H. 4, S. 1-24. DOI:10.1371/journal.pone.0195973
Abstract
"Drawing on job design theories and a conceptual framework of work-related goals and motivation in later adulthood, the aim of this paper is to explore how work-related and individual factors are separately and jointly related to psychological work ability and bridge employment intentions via late job mobility. The cross-sectional study is based on a sample of 171 older Spanish workers aged 45 - 65 and beyond. We differentiated between groups of older workers in mid career (45 - 55 years of age) and in their later careers (56 years and beyond). Our results confirm that task characteristics and, secondarily, knowledge characteristics are the most relevant factors in perceptions of psychological work ability among aged workers. Both age groups display a very marked personal mastery trait, which mediates the relationships between job characteristics and both psychological work ability and late job mobility intentions. The paper concludes with a discussion of theoretical and practical implications and suggestions for future research on the issues implied in the psychological adjustment of older workers in their mid and late careers."

Basar, Dilek & Mehmet A. Soytas (2018): Can heterogeneity in reporting behavior explain the gender gap in self-assessed health status? (Economics. Discussion papers 2018-25), Kiel, 19 S.
Abstract
"This paper explains the gender differences in self-assessed health status by providing a theoretical identification mechanism through a dynamic structural model which allows for heterogeneity in discount factors of individuals. Theoretical predictions are empirically tested and estimation results support the structural model implications. The authors conclude that accounting for heterogeneity in individual discount factors explains a significant portion of the gender gap in self-assessed health status."

Physical work intensity and the split workday: theory and evidence from Spain (2018)

Chapela, Jorge González (2018): Physical work intensity and the split workday. Theory and evidence from Spain. In: Journal of labor research, Jg. 39, H. 3, S. 329-353. DOI:10.1007/s12122-018-9269-8
Abstract
"This study uses a job-design model and the 2002-2003 Spanish Time Use Survey to explore the existence of a previously overlooked relationship between physical work intensity and the split workday. The theoretical model developed predicts that the incidence of working split shifts may increase with physical work intensity if and only if the degree of recovery allowed by the mid-workday break is directly proportional to the physical load of the work done. Occupation-specific estimates of energy expenditure are constructed for Spain which permit investigating empirically the relationship between physical work intensity and the split workday."

Eskildsen, Jacob Kjær, Anders Frederiksen & Ann-Kristina Løkke (2018): Employee absence: An organizational perspective. (IZA discussion paper 11889), Bonn, 24 S.
Abstract
"We study employee absence in Danish organizations. In contrast to Steers and Rhodes (1978), who stress the importance of individual and organizational characteristics in shaping employees' motivation to attend work, we show that absence is predominantly an individualized phenomenon. Because the within-group variation in absence clearly dominates the between-group variation in absence, we argue that companies need to invoke individualized policies to reduce employee absence and demonstrate that HR Analytics is a useful tool in the process; policies targeting particular employee groups such as women or senior workers are inefficient. An additional intriguing finding is that incentives (through promotions and dismissals) are linked to individual absence." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Commuting time and sick-day absence of US workers (2018)

Gimenez-Nadal, Jose I., José Alberto Molina & Jorge Velilla (2018): Commuting time and sick-day absence of US workers. (IZA discussion paper 11700), Bonn, 23 S.
Abstract
"This paper analyzes the relationship between commuting time and sick-day absence of US workers. Using data from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics for the years 2011, 2013, and 2015, we find that a 1% increase in the daily commute of male workers is associated with an increase of around 0.018% in sick-day absences per year. In the case of women, the relationship is not significant. These results hold after controlling for individual fixed effects and socio-demographic characteristics, changes in jobs and places of residence, and differences in the self-reported health status of workers. By determining how commuting time is related to sickness absenteeism, we shed light on the relationship between commuting behavior and workers' health-related outcomes, measured by their labour supply."

The impact of sickness absenteeism on productivity: new evidence from Belgian matched panel data (2018)
Zitatform
Grinza, Elena & François Rycx (2018): The impact of sickness absenteeism on productivity. New evidence from Belgian matched panel data. (IZA discussion paper 11543), Bonn, 26 S.
Abstract
"We investigate the impact of sickness absenteeism on productivity by using rich longitudinal matched employer-employee data on Belgian private firms. We deal with endogeneity, which arises from unobserved firm heterogeneity and reverse causality, by applying a modified version of the Ackerberg et al's (2015) control function method, which explicitly removes firm fixed effects. Our main finding is that, in general, sickness absenteeism substantially dampens firm productivity. An increase of 1 percentage point in the rate of sickness absenteeism entails a productivity loss of 0.24%. Yet, we find that the impact is much diversified depending on the categories of workers who are absent and across different types of firms. Our results show that sickness absenteeism is detrimental mainly when absent workers are high-tenure or blue-collar workers. Moreover, they show that sickness absenteeism is harmful mostly to industrial firms, high capital-intensive companies, and small- and medium-sized enterprises. This overall picture is coherent with the idea that sickness absenteeism is problematic when absent workers embed high levels of firm/taskspecific (tacit) knowledge, when the work of absent employees is highly interconnected with the work of other employees (e.g., along the assembly line), and when firms face more limitations in substituting temporarily absent workers."

Abstract
Der Beitrag setzt ein mit Hinweisen auf die Beschaffenheit der Daten und geht dann auf die zahlenmäßige Entwicklung der Krankenstände in Österreich und im Bundesland Oberösterreich ein, den Krankenstandsfällen und -tagen im Zeitverlauf, den Krankenstandsursachen und der Verteilung der Krankenstände nach Krankheitsgruppen, der Inzidenz von Krankenständen und Präsentismusverhalten (also der zunehmenden Bereitschaft, auch krank zur Arbeit zu gehen), der Entwicklung von psychischen Erkrankungen. Im Resümee wird festgehalten, dass der langfristige Vergleich der Krankenstandsdaten einen deutlich rückläufigen Trend aufweist, wenngleich sich die Ursachen für Krankenstände im Zeitverlauf, wie das Ansteigen von psychischen Erkrankungen, verändert haben. Das Inszenieren von Krankenstandsmissbrauchsdebatten, die Kriminalisierung kranker Arbeitnehmerinnen sei daher unangebracht und nicht zielführend. Eine objektivere, faktenorientierte Auseinandersetzung auf Basis der jährlich publizierten Krankenstandsdaten im Fehlzeitenreport des Wirtschaftsforschungsinstituts und letztlich eine weniger emotionale Debatte wäre in diesem Zusammenhang wünschenswert.

The effect of physical and cognitive decline at older ages on job mismatch and retirement (2018)

Hudomiet, Péter, Michael D. Hurd, Susann Rohwedder & Robert J. Willis (2018): The effect of physical and cognitive decline at older ages on job mismatch and retirement. (NBER working paper 25229), Cambrige, Mass., 75 S. DOI:10.3386/w25229
Abstract
"Physical and cognitive abilities of older workers decline with age, which can cause a mismatch between abilities and job demands, potentially leading to early retirement. We link longitudinal Health and Retirement Study data to O*NET occupational characteristics to estimate to what extent changes in workers' physical and cognitive resources change their work-limiting health problems, mental health, subjective probabilities of retirement, and labor market status. While we find that physical and cognitive decline strongly predict all outcomes, only the interaction between large-muscle resources and job demands is statistically significant, implying a strong mismatch at older ages in jobs requiring large-muscle strength. The effects of declines in fine motor skills and cognition are not statistically different across differing occupational job demands." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Abstract
"We study how changes in the distribution of occupations have affected the aggregate non-pecuniary costs and benefits of working. The physical toll of work is less now than in 1950, with workers shifting away from occupations in which people report experiencing tiredness and pain. The emotional consequences of the changing occupation distribution vary substantially across demographic groups. Work has become happier and more meaningful for women, but more stressful and less meaningful for men. These changes appear to be concentrated at lower education levels."

Class-specific gender gaps in health: the role of gender and working conditions within classes (2018)

Kjellsson, Sara (2018): Class-specific gender gaps in health. The role of gender and working conditions within classes. (Swedish Institute for Social Research. Working paper 2018,02), Stockholm, 26 S.
Abstract
"Social scientific health research typically finds higher levels of ill health among women and among the working class, and working conditions is an important mechanism in the literature on class health inequality. Whether gender health differences are similar across classes or whether they are class-specific is less studied. The aim of this study is to explore class-specific gender gaps in self-rated health (SRH), musculoskeletal pain and psychiatric distress, and whether they can be ascribed to working conditions. The study consists of 2597 employed men and women, aged 18-65, with information on class, working conditions and health from the Swedish Level of Living Survey (LNU) in 2010. Linear Probability Models (LPM) are estimated and when including interaction terms between gender and class some class-specific gender gaps are observed. The between-class aspect of these cannot be ascribed to working conditions, but they contribute to the understanding of within-class differences. For SRH the gap is 10 percentage points larger among unskilled workers than higher nonmanual employees. This can partly be ascribed to these women experiencing large psychosocial demands; while at the same time being more vulnerable than male unskilled workers to physically strenuous conditions. In skilled working class women are found to be particularly exposed to psychosocially demanding conditions, which accounts for the gender gap in musculoskeletal pain within this class. This study shows that gender differences in health differs between classes, and that taking class-specific horizontal gender segregation into account is needed in order to understand gender health differences."

Abstract
"While the Unemployment Insurance (UI) program is one of the largest safety net program in the U.S., research on its benefits is limited. This paper exploits plausibly exogenous changes in state UI laws to empirically estimate whether UI generosity mitigates any of the previously documented negative health effects of job loss. The results show higher UI generosity increases health insurance coverage and utilization, and leads to improved self-reported health. Moreover, these effects are stronger during periods of high unemployment rates. Finally, I find no effects on risky behaviors nor on health conditions." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Medical expenditure and unmet need of the pre-elderly and the elderly according to job status in Korea: are the elderly indeed most vulnerable? (2018)

Abstract
"Increase in the elderly population and early retirement imposes immense economic burden on societies. Previous studies on the association between medical expenditure and working status in the elderly population have not adequately addressed reverse causality problem. In addition, the pre-elderly group has hardly been discussed in this regard. This study assessed possible causal association between employment status and medical expenditure as well as employment status and medical unmet needs in a representative sample of the Korean elderly (aged?65) and the pre-elderly (aged ?50 and < 65) adults from the Korea Health Panel Data (KHP). Dynamic panel Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) estimation was employed for the analysis of medical expenditure to address reverse causality, and fixed effect panel logistic regression was used for the analysis of unmet need. The results showed no significant association between job status and medical expenditure in the elderly, but a negative and significant influence on the level of medical expenditure in the pre-elderly. Unemployment was a significant determinant of lowering unmet need from lack of time while it was not associated with unmet need from financial burden in the fixed-effect panel model for both the elderly and pre-elderly groups. The pre-elderly adults were more likely to reduce necessary health service utilization due to unemployment compared to the elderly group because there is no proper financial safety net for the pre-elderly, which may cause non-adherence to treatment and therefore lead to negative health effects. The policy dialogue on safety net currently centers only on the elderly, but should be extended to the pre-elderly population." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Return-to-work for multiple jobholders with a work-related musculoskeletal disorder: a population-based, matched cohort in British Columbia (2018)

Maas, Esther T., Mieke Koehoorn & Christopher B. McLeod (2018): Return-to-work for multiple jobholders with a work-related musculoskeletal disorder. A population-based, matched cohort in British Columbia. In: PLoS one, Jg. 13, H. 4, S. 1-21. DOI:10.1371/journal.pone.0193618
Abstract
"Introduction: Multiple jobholders (MJHs) have a higher risk of injury compared to single jobholders (SJHs), but it is unknown if return-to-work (RTW) after a work injury is affected by multiple jobholding. This study examined the association between multiple versus single jobholding and time to RTW for workers with a work-related musculoskeletal disorder (MSD).
Methods: We used administrative workers' compensation data to identify injured workers with an accepted MSD lost-time claim between 2010-2014 in British Columbia, Canada. The outcome was days until RTW during twelve months after the first day of time-loss. The MJH and SJH cohorts were balanced using coarsened exact matching that yielded a final matched cohort of 8,389 MJHs and 8,389 SJHs. The outcome was estimated with Cox regression, using piecewise models, and the hazard ratios were stratified by type of MSD, a serious injury indicator, gender, weekly workdays preceding MSD, and wage categories.
Results: MJHs were less likely to RTW compared to SJHs within the first six months after the first time-loss day, with greater and longer lasting effects for males, workers with a serious injury, and a higher wage. No difference between MJHs and SJHs was found for workers who had a six- or seven-day work week preceding MSD, for workers with dislocations, and for workers who were still off work after six months.
Conclusions: Overall, MJHs with a workweek of maximum five days are disadvantaged compared to SJHs in terms of RTW following a work-related MSD within the first six months after the first time-loss day. This difference might be caused by more precarious job contracts for MJHs that challenges RTW because of lack of support for modified work, higher workload, and reduced likelihood that MJHs file a workers' compensation claim. Despite adjusting for type of MSD, severity of injury and occupation, the differences persisted for the vast majority of the study sample." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en)) -

Abstract
"Restrictive employment protection legislation has been highlighted as a key reason for lower labor productivity in Europe compared to the United States. Evidence in the literature has shown robust effects of employment protection on effort, though the effects appear too small to generate marked cross-country differences in labor productivity. The authors revisit this issue using representative data of private-sector workers in Spain. A range of legislative changes aimed at reducing the incidence of temporary employment are used to estimate the effect of permanent employment on one aspect of effort, absenteeism. Results suggest that being employed on a permanent contract increases the probability of being absent from work due to sickness by approximately 5.3 percentage points and the time absent by approximately 0.30 of a day per week. These results suggest that cross-country differences in employment protection have the potential to have a substantial impact on labor productivity." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Too polluted to work? The gendered correlates of air pollution on hours worked (2018)

Montt, Guillermo (2018): Too polluted to work? The gendered correlates of air pollution on hours worked. In: IZA journal of labor economics, Jg. 7, S. 1-18. DOI:10.1186/s40172-018-0067-6
Abstract
"Air pollution affects workers' ability to work by damaging their own health, but also by damaging the health of their dependents. This paper draws on 20 years of air pollution and employment data from Santiago, Chile, a highly polluted metropolis, particularly in fall and winter months. The paper finds that though air pollution is not associated to a reduction in overall hours worked, it does so for women and particularly for women with children. Weeks with pollution at 100 Ág/m3, common for Santiago, see double the gender difference in working hours. It is hypothesised that children, unable to go to school, must stay home and cared for. These findings suggest that air pollution may contribute to gender inequality through the gendered-biased distribution of care responsibilities. Pollution brings to evidence gender inequalities in care and, given the gendered nature of care and the geographic distribution of pollution, may contribute to enhance gender and geographic labour market inequalities. Environmental policy may serve to enhance gender equality as well." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))
