The long-term effect of job mobility on workers' mental health: a propensity score analysis
2022
Abstract Objectives The main purpose of this longitudinal study was to elucidate the impact of external job mobility, due to a change of employer, on mental health. Methods A cohort of Belgian employees from the IDEWE occupational medicine registry was followed-up for twenty-seven years, from 1993 to 2019. The use of drugs for neuropsychological diseases was considered as an objective indicator of mental health. The covariates were related to demographic, physical, behavioural characteristics, occupational and work-related risks. Propensity scores were calculated with a Cox regression model with time-varying covariates. The PS matching was used to eliminate the systematic differences in sub…
Evaluating the impact of external job mobility on three health outcomes: a longitudinal study of the IDEWE cohort of Belgian workers
2022
There is large debate in the literature about the relationship between job mobility and health. This thesis contributes to this topic by estimating the impact of work mobility on either cardiovascular, musculoskeletal or neuropsychological diseases in a longitudinal study on a sample of Belgian workers followed-up for seven-years. The occurrence of such diseases was assessed through medication use as proxy. In the first part of this thesis, the focus was on CVD and MSD diseases. To this aim, a logistic regression model for autocorrelated data with repeated measures was applied (while controlling for the time-variant and time-invariant confounders). This longitudinal model was adequate to ta…
