Reviews
Nine papers from an IZA (Institute of Labor Economics) workshop on health and labor markets deal with the link between health events and labor market outcomes, incentive effects of health insurance, the relationship between opioid use and employment, and health effects on children of parental migration. The topics include women's labor market participation after an adverse health event, job insecurity and older workers' mental health in the US, the incentive effects of sickness absence compensation: analysis of a natural experiment in Eastern Europe, and parental migration decision and child health outcomes: evidence from China. -- Annotation (c)2019 * (protoview.com) *
