The objective of this study was to identify health and education related predictors of employment/self-employment in the age between 60 and 69 yr in Europe. Data were obtained from Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) study-Wave 6. Our final sample (n=13,447) was retrieved from 16 European Union member states, Switzerland and Israel. We used logistic regression model including education level, physical and mental health parameters to predict employment/self-employment vs. retired. Employment/self-employment was associated with higher education status, increased risk for depression, and obesity, but with decreased risk for chronic diseases, loneliness and limitations in daily life activities. Age-appropriate working conditions, part-time options, and enhanced job characteristics may contribute to maintain a good health status and prevent negative aspects of work that can induce the risk for stress and depression.
本研究的目的是确定欧洲60至69岁人群就业/自主创业与健康和教育相关的预测因素。数据来自欧洲健康、老龄化与退休调查(SHARE)研究的第6轮。我们的最终样本(n = 13447)来自16个欧盟成员国、瑞士和以色列。我们使用逻辑回归模型,纳入教育水平、身心健康参数来预测就业/自主创业与退休情况。就业/自主创业与较高的教育程度、抑郁症风险增加以及肥胖有关,但与慢性病风险、孤独感和日常生活活动受限风险降低有关。适合年龄的工作条件、兼职选择以及改善的工作特性可能有助于保持良好的健康状况,并预防可能引发压力和抑郁症风险的工作负面因素。
