2008年，美国爆发了一场严重的经济危机，并迅速蔓延至全球。这场危机严重影响了劳动力市场和员工的福祉。因此，本研究的目的是对分析经济危机对工人健康影响的主要研究进行系统综述。我们在PubMed数据库中进行了检索，共选取了19篇文章进行综述。所有研究都表明，经济危机是一个重要的压力源，对工人的心理健康产生了负面影响。大多数研究记录显示，失业率上升、工作量增加、裁员以及工资降低都与情绪障碍、焦虑、抑郁、心境恶劣和自杀率的上升有关。一些研究表明，与危机相关的问题可能还通过增加心血管和呼吸系统疾病等健康问题的风险，影响了工人的整体健康。最后，一些研究关注了危机对医疗保健服务的影响。这些研究表明，由于经济衰退，医疗保健服务的公共支出减少以及公立医院预算削减，导致了组织方面的问题（例如，医疗用品短缺）。
In 2008 a deep economic crisis started in the US and rapidly spread around the world. The crisis severely affected the labor market and employees’ well-being. Hence, the aim of this work is to implement a systematic review of the principal studies that analyze the impact of the economic crisis on the health of workers. We conducted our search on the PubMed database, and a total of 19 articles were selected for review. All studies showed that the economic crisis was an important stressor that had a negative impact on workers’ mental health. Most of the studies documented that a rise in unemployment, increased workload, staff reduction, and wages reduction were linked to an increased rate of mood disorders, anxiety, depression, dysthymia, and suicide. Some studies showed that problems related to the crisis may have also affected the general health of workers by increasing the risk of such health problems as cardiovascular and respiratory diseases. Finally, some studies looked at the impact of the crisis on health care services. These studies demonstrated that the reduction in public expenditure on health care services, and the reduction of public hospital budgets due to the recession, led to organizational problems (eg, medical supply shortages).
