Low Quality Job

Could having NO job be better for you than having a job you hate?

Is your job low quality? Having a job you hate can be even worse for your health than having no job at all. Experts at Australian National University measured the well-being of unemployed and unhappily employed workers over a 7 year period. The study described low quality jobs as those with high demands, low job security and very little decision making control. Those with low quality jobs had higher levels of anxiety and depression with more health related problems than those who had lost their jobs all together.
