Work and health.

Summary The 4th cover page states: "Although the arduousness of work contributes to the deterioration of health, studies also show that employment preserves it by promoting access to healthcare. The relationship between the state of health of individuals and the labour market has been the subject of much debate and legislation. The current provisions, based on a logic of compensation and reparation, do not take sufficient account of the complexity of these interactions, which are further increased by the ageing of the population and the lengthening and precariousness of professional trajectories. Faced with health risks, we need more prevention and more secure career paths".
