Description

Product Description A country's economic productivity is directly related to the health of its workforce. Thus, how a nation allocates resources to the physical health of its population is of vital importance in establishing the economic well-being of its citizens. This volume contains nine original and innovative articles that investigate the relationship between a nation's health policies, employee health and resulting labor market outcomes. Topics include the direct link between employees' health and wages, the employment impact of an unfavorable health shock, the relationship between job insecurity and a worker's mental health, the effect of career disruptions on already chronically ill workers, the consequences of arbitrary health insurance disenrollments, the impact of reducing publically available sick day benefits, the repercussions of increasing employers' sick pay benefits on absenteeism, the relationship between economic conditions and opioid abuse, and the consequences of parental migration on children's health. For researchers and students of labor economics, or anyone interested in understanding how a country's health policies affect its economic productivity, this volume is a fundamental text. Review Nine papers from an IZA (Institute of Labor Economics) workshop on health and labor markets deal with the link between health events and labor market outcomes, incentive effects of health insurance, the relationship between opioid use and employment, and health effects on children of parental migration. The topics include women's labor market participation after an adverse health event, job insecurity and older workers' mental health in the US, the incentive effects of sickness absence compensation: analysis of a natural experiment in Eastern Europe, and parental migration decision and child health outcomes: evidence from China. -- Annotation ©2019, (protoview.com) About the Author Solomon W.
