The first concern regarding today’s economy continues to be the issue of employment or the lack of it, in spite of the fact that the outlook is better than a few months ago. Work places have started to open up and more and more people are being employed, although many have to settle for a part time job or a less paid one.
It is a well known fact that not having a job puts a lot of pressure on someone, as a person can even become mentally or physically ill. We can even talk about the employment health. There have been cases when people were so depressed that they got mediocre employment. You may not believe it, but this can be even worse than not having a work place at all. Many have rushed to describe this situation as the death of hope.
This can appear a bit extreme, but to those who are waking up each morning to go to a bad job, whit a lousy salary and offers one no control over what they do or leaves them unsure as the future is concerned. In fact the psychologists have said that work of poor psychosocial quality does not grant the similar psychological health benefits as employment in job that have high psychosocial quality. Therefore the employment health has become a very important issue in today’s society.
