Abstract

The considerable increase of non-standard labor contracts, unemployment and inactivity rates raisesthe question of whether job insecurity and the lack of job opportunities affect physical and mentalwell-being differently from being employed with an open-ended contract. In this paper we offerevidence on the relationship between self-reported health and the employment status in Italy usingthe Survey on Household Income and Wealth (SHIW); another aim is to investigate whether thesepotential inequalities have changed with the recent economic downturn (time period 2006-2010).
