A rich literature has studied the effect of job insecurity on health. However the causal link between these two … variables remains unclear. We study the relationship between perceived job insecurity and health using longitudinal data on … of the dataset compared to previous studies on job insecurity and health allows us to apply different estimation methods …

Using longitudinal data from the Canadian National Population Health Survey (NPHS), we study the relationship between … health and employment among older Canadians. We focus on two issues: (1) the possible endogeneity of self-reported health …, particularly ?justification bias?, and (2) the relative importance of health changes and long-term health in the decision to work …

This paper aims to explore the interrelation between health and work decisions of elderly workers, taking the various … ways in which health and work can influence each other explicitly into account. For this, two issues are of relevance. Self …-assessed health measures are usually at hand in empirical analyses and research indicates that these may be endogenous, state …

Furthermore, even if an objective health measure is used, it is not likely to be … strictly exogenous to labour market status or labour income. Health and labour market variables are correlatedbecause of …

The authors formulate a stylized structural model of health, wealth accumulation and retirement decisions building on … the human capital framework of health provided by Grossman. They explicitly assume a functional form of the utility … consumption, health, health investment, savings and retirement. They argue that the Grossman literature has been unnecessarily …

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 …

Isolating … cultural effects can best gauge self-selection and host country effects on the health of emigrants with longer time abroad. We …
