我们使用 2006 年和 2008 年健康与退休研究收集的生物标志物测量值以及工作状态的纵向自我报告来估计失业对生理失调客观测量值的影响。我们区分团体或个人裁员以及企业倒闭。根据生物标志物测量,被解雇的工人的健康状况较低,而在企业倒闭的情况下被解雇的工人则不然。逐波匹配受访者自我报告的健康状况和失业前的主观失业预期的估计表明,裁员对生物标志物,特别是糖化血红蛋白 (HbAlc) 产生强烈影响。裁员可能会使年死亡率增加 10.3%,这与集体裁员对死亡率影响的其他证据一致。 (C) 2016 年由 Elsevier B.V. 出版
We estimate the effect of job loss on objective measures of physiological dysregulation using biomarker measures collected by the Health and Retirement Study in 2006 and 2008 and longitudinal self-reports of work status. We distinguish between group or individual layoffs, and business closures. Workers who are laid off from their job have lower health as measured by biomarker, whereas workers laid off in the context of a business closure do not. Estimates matching respondents wave-by-wave on self-reported health conditions and subjective job loss expectations prior to job loss, suggest strong effects of layoffs on biomarkers, in particular for glycosylated hemoglobin (HbAlc). A layoff could increase annual mortality rates by 10.3%, consistent with other evidence of the effect of group layoffs on mortality. (C) 2016 Published by Elsevier B.V.
