The asymmetric experience of gains and losses in job security on health
利用法国Delalande税上调作为准自然实验，发现工作不安全感增加会显著降低自评健康，但工作保障增加并未提升健康水平。
Is workers' health more sensitive to losses than gains in job security? I address this question using the 1999 rise in the French Delalande tax as a quasi-natural experiment. The tax design allows to separately identify the causal impact of exogenous gains and losses in job security on workers' health. Difference-in-differences estimation results show that a greater job insecurity reduces significantly self-reported health. At the same time, more job security does not translate into a higher level of self-reported health.
