The Rise and Fall of Underemployment
A new brief, with support from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, on
underemployment was released this week
<[link removed]>.
Compelling theory and a growing body of empirical research point toward
a relationship between underemployment and reduced health and
well-being, particularly when such underemployment is involuntary.
The brief summarizes the literature to date regarding links between
underemployment and various health outcomes, identifies research gaps,
and draws implications for post-pandemic policies that would both help
curb underemployment and mitigate its health effects.
Although working less than the desired number of hours leads to both
economic hardship and psychological distress, it is possible for these
effects to be reversed when a person moves out of underemployment.
