READING 6
I] Recent research has highlighted that people in demanding jobs with little control are more likely to become ill or leave the labour market early. [II] However, a new study in Sweden suggests that for some workers, having a demanding job can be associated with positive outcomes. [III] Governments in developed countries are keen to understand how working conditions influence whether people continue working longer. [IV] This discussion has become crucial as falling birth rates and increasing life expectancy mean governments want people to stay in jobs rather than retire early.
[V] The Swedish study followed all 55-64 year-olds living and working in December 2001 and tracked them 11 years later, in 2012. [VI] It found that workers with low levels of control over their tasks in 2001 were less likely to be in paid work in 2012, whereas those with high levels of control tended to stay longer in employment. [VII] Regarding job demands, the picture was more nuanced: workers in high-demand jobs were less likely to rely on pensions, sick-leave benefits, or social assistance 11 years later, while those in low-demand, low-control roles were less likely to continue working.
[VIII] The study also highlighted differences between men and women. [IX] Women with high-control jobs were more likely to remain in paid work, whereas men stayed longer only if their jobs were both high-demand and high-control. [X] This may reflect differences in job types, family responsibilities, income, or health rather than control or stress alone.
[XI] Overall, the findings indicate that psychologically demanding jobs are not necessarily harmful; they can positively affect older workers and support their continued participation in the labour market.
