This paper analyses the association between working conditions and physical health using data from the Sixth European Working Conditions Survey (EWCS6) released in 2017. The econometric analysis uses two indicators to describe health status: self-assessed health (SAH), which is a subjective indicator of health; and an objective indicator of health (SICK), which is based on the occurrence of any illness or health problem that has lasted or is expected to last for more than 6 months. The theoretical hypotheses concerning the association between working conditions and SAH and the association between working conditions and SICK are tested using a standard ordered probit model and a standard probit model, respectively. The results show that encouraging working conditions, work environment, and job support are associated with both better self-assessed health and better objective health.
本文利用 2017 年发布的第六次欧洲工作条件调查（EWCS6）的数据，分析了工作条件与身体健康之间的关系。计量经济学分析使用了两个指标来描述健康状况：自我评估健康（SAH），这是健康的主观指标；以及基于任何持续或预计持续超过 6 个月的疾病或健康问题的发生的客观健康指标（SICK）。关于工作条件与 SAH 的关联以及工作条件与 SICK 的关联的理论假设，分别使用标准有序概率模型和标准概率模型进行了检验。结果表明，鼓励性的工作条件、工作环境和工作支持与更好的自我评估健康和更好的客观健康都有关联。
