| Tiivistelmä: | This study investigates the effect of job insecurity and other job stressors on the mental health of steel workers. Levels of job stress and mental health were measured 7 years before and 7 months after the company at which they worked had gone into receivership, a method that can be described as a quasi-experimental field study with a sample of blue-collar non-supervisory male workers. 2 out of 4 job stressors were found to be at a lower level when the second wave of research took place. Analyses showed that the correlation btw. job stressors and psychosomatic complaints is now lower than during the 1st wave but that they reach the former level when job insecurity is added. Job insecurity was mainly connected to an increase in psychosomatic complaints and in anxiety. - There are also more results reported. - One conclusion is that positive health effects due to reduction in the stress level may be offset by acute job insecurity. |
