Abstract |
This article gives an overview of current knowledge of the relationship between health and job insecurity. Unemployment, restructuring of production activities and subcontracting have contributed to the casualization process which may lead to a series of symptoms that can be described as a "malaise" or, in a significant proportion of cases, as a depressive disorder. A sociological research study aimed at studying these relationships involved has been initiated. |
