“…This has had a major impact on the fullemployment model of welfare states, with increased levels of unemployment and long-term unemployment (Nickell et al, 2005), and an increase in atypical employment and job instability across countries (Auer and Cazes, 2000;Kalleberg, 2000Kalleberg, , 2009. This rise in insecurity has only been exacerbated by the recent and on-going financial crisis, which started in 2008, and the series of austerity measures that followed.…”

Dualization theory posits that certain institutions cause dualization in the labour market, yet how institutions deepen the subjective insecurity divide between insiders and outsiders has not been examined. This paper examines this question using data from 23 European countries in 2008/9. Results show that the subjective employment insecurity divide between permanent and temporary workers varies significantly across different countries. Corporatist countries, with stronger unions, have larger subjective insecurity divides between permanent and temporary workers. However, this is because permanent workers feel more secure in these countries rather than because temporary workers are more exposed to feelings of insecurity.

“…Maurice's narrative conveys how such identity degradation can occur through a process in which ageing workers, within an ageist labour market in which ageing workers tend to experience prolonged duration of unemployment 45,46 , may need to take on work for financial reasons that does not draw upon the skills, knowledge and experiences they have developed over their lifetimes.…”

ABSTRACT. However, building on foundational work related to occupational justice and the political nature of occupation 6,7 , there has been increasing recognition of the need to employ theoretical and methodological approaches that address social relations of power 8,9,10 . To date, work addressing the situated nature of occupation has tended to neglect how social relations of power are enacted in ways that create and perpetuate situations of discrimination, marginalisation and oppression 11,12,13,14 . Attention to social relations of power is essential if the study of occupation is to critically raise awareness of the mechanisms through which ocKey words: Narrative, discourse, occupational injustice, later life cupational injustices are enacted and, in turn, inform practice aimed at transforming socio-political practices, systems and structures to create more occupationally just conditions 15,16,17,18 . This paper addresses the embeddedness of occupation within social relations of power tied to age. It aims to both illustrate a methodological approach that can be employed to critically examine the influences of discourse on lived experience and occupational possibilities, and also the potential understandings of occupation that can evolve from such work. Drawing on narrative data collected from retired individuals in a Canadian city, the analysis critically addresses how ageism, as an ideology and form of discrimination based in social relations of power, bounded occupational possibilities and choices in the work to retirement transition. In concert with the emerging body of work integrating critical social science frameworks to examine how social relations of power tied to race, gender, citizenship status, and other attributes shape possibilities for occupations, this paper aims to further raise awareness of the need to attend to social relations of power in occupation-centred research and practice in order to form and sustain contexts that enable human flourishing and dignity through occupation. Politicising occupation: Occupation and social relations of powerSeveral authors have pointed to the importance of politicising occupation; that is, placing occupation within broad relations of power to raise awareness of, and inform actions to address, how such relations shape and perpetuate occupational inequities 3,

“…Whereas information on absence, asked as the number of days the worker was absent from work in the previous year, is collected annually, information on a worker's coverage by a collective bargaining contract is only available for the 1995 survey. However, because average tenure in Germany is longer than in the U.K. or the U.S. (in 1998, 10.4 years versus 8.2 and 6.6 years, respectively; Auer and Cazes, 2000), one option for the empirical strategy is to use the 1995 information on coverage by a collective bargaining contract and impute this value for each individual in all other waves. Nevertheless, because an employee may alter the treatment status by changing employer, this procedure may blur the partition of the sample into treatment and control groups to produce a third source of potential attenuation bias in our estimates (see Section 2).…”

This series presents research findings based either directly on data from the German SocioEconomic Panel Study (SOEP) or using SOEP data as part of an internationally comparable data set (e.g. CNEF, ECHP, LIS, LWS, CHER/PACO). SOEP is a truly multidisciplinary household panel study covering a wide range of social and behavioral sciences: economics, sociology, psychology, survey methodology, econometrics and applied statistics, educational science, political science, public health, behavioral genetics, demography, geography, and sport science.

There is no external referee process and papers are either accepted or rejected without revision. Papers appear in this series as works in progress and may also appear elsewhere.

Unlike previous literature, apart from absence from work, we also consider effects on doctor/hospital visits and subjective health indicators. We also add to the literature by estimating both switch-on and switch-off effects, because the reform was repealed two years later. We find a two-day reduction in the number of days of absence. Quantile regression reveals higher point estimates (both in absolute and relative terms) at higher quantiles, meaning that the reform predominantly reduced long durations of absence. In terms of health, the reform reduced the average number of days spent in hospital by almost half a day, but we cannot find robust evidence for negative effects on health outcomes or perceived liquidity constraints.
