Underemployment: Consequences for the Health and Well‐Being of Workers

Friedland, Daniel S., Price, Richard H.·2003·American Journal of Community Psychology

Abstract

This paper addresses the question of how the adequacy of a person's employment status influences their health. We draw on and extend the Labor Utilization Framework to distinguish between different forms of underemployment (hours, income, skills, and status) and test their relative effects on a range of physical health and psychological well‐being outcomes. Using data drawn from a nationally representative sample ( N =1,429) of adults of working age, we assess the concurrent effects of underemployment through a longitudinal design that controls for prior levels of health and well‐being. The results indicate that underemployed workers do report lower levels of health and well‐being than adequately employed workers. However, the relationship varies by both types of underemployment and indicator of health and well‐being. We conclude by discussing future research to explore the relationship between underemployment and health and well‐being.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
