Longer working careers and sustainable work: the issue of social inequality
Journal Contribution - Journal Article
In this article, it is argued that improving work sustainability is of the utmost importance if we want to keep an older labour force (healthy) at work. It is argued that making gains in the sustainability of work is – first and foremost – a matter of improving job quality at the bottom of the labour market. This is demonstrated using two cases characterized by working conditions that have important impacts on health and well-being: job strain and precarious employment.
