In this paper, I propose a life cycle model of occupational choice with endogenous health behavior, aging, and … longevity. Health-demanding work leads to a faster accumulation of health deficits and is remunerated with a hazard markup on … wages. Health deficit accumulation is also influenced by unhealthy consumption and health care expenditure. I calibrate the …

Consequently, they accumulate health deficits faster and die earlier than … originally planned.
