Health Effects of Downsizing Survival
研究发现裁员对留在公司的员工有显著的负面健康影响，包括心理和身体健康，且这种影响源于员工对自身工作的担忧，并给企业带来不可忽视的成本。
Abstract We show that downsizing has substantial negative effects on the health of workers who remain in the firm. We study mass layoff (ML) survivors in Austria, using workers who survive a ML themselves, but a few years in the future, as a control group. Based on high-quality administrative data, we find evidence that downsizing has persistent effects on mental and physical health, and that these effects can be explained by workers fearing for their own jobs. We also show that health effects due to downsizing imply nonnegligible costs for firms.
