مستخلص: Objectives: This study explored the effect of employment status on mortality over a 13-year period in Korean men.Methods: We used data from the Korean Labor and Income Panel Study from 1999 to 2012. The study subjects included 2,737 employed men with good health status aged 30-69 years at the beginning of the study. Deaths were tracked for 13 years from 2000 to 2012. Employment status was classified into regular employees, precarious employees, petty bourgeoisie, and employers. The hazard ratios (HRs) were calculated using Cox's proportional hazard models, and adjusted for age, education, income, and occupation, with regular employees as the reference category. To examine the effect of employment status considering employment history, the risk ratios of mortality were measured using the Poisson regression model considering the working period of each employment, with 0 years as the reference category.Results: Being a precarious employee (HR 1.84) or petty bourgeoisie (HR 1.87) at a particular time point had a negative effect on mortality for 13 years compared with regular employees. Furthermore, no positive effect of working was detected in terms of mortality in precarious employees or petty bourgeoisie, whereas a positive effect of the accumulation of working as a regular employee on mortality was observed.Conclusion: These results suggest that a healthy social policy is needed for precarious employees and petty bourgeoisie to avoid disadvantages in the workplaces and the safety net.
