Gunnar Aronsson - Stockholm University, Department of Psychology

Description
Over 50 percent of them answered that the form of employment was an impediment to get a loan and above 40 percent that it was an impediment to get a lease. The study group is strongly polarized as regards to economical matters. There is a clear connection between poverty and health. Those who often worried about economy and were poor had lower psychological well-being (GHQ-12), more complaints from stomach, back and neck, more headache, and were more tired and listless.
Purpose:
To investigate the economic situation of temporary employees.
