Effects of Health Problems on the Work Experiences of Middle-Aged Men Industrial Gerontology 4 (Spring 1977): 97-112 Cohort(s): Older Men Publisher: National Council on the Aging Keyword(s): Disabled Workers; Health/Health Status/SF-12 Scale Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. An analysis of five years in the work lives of middle-aged men showed that nearly two-fifths of those in their early sixties reported health limitations. The most serious labor market problems that confront men in their middle years appear to be closely linked to the chronic health conditions and disabilities that may accompany advancing age. Health status is closely linked to premature death: middle-aged men whose health affected their work in 1966 were two to three times as likely to die between 1966 and 1971 as men whose health did not affect their work. Industrial injuries are an important source of health limitations, since they occur with alarming frequency. |
