Precarious employment in occupational health – an OMEGA-NET working group position paper. Scand J Work Environ Health. 2020;46(3):321-9. DOI: 10.5271/sjweh.38600355-3140http://hdl.handle.net/10230/45184Despite the growing use of the term precarious employment, there is no consensus on a theoretical framework or definition. This hampers the study of the subject, especially in public and occupational health. We propose a theoretical framework for understanding precarious employment as a multidimensional construct where unfavourable features of employment quality accumulate in the same job. Future research should apply an intersectional and multi-level approach to analysis, with a focus on improving exposure assessment and investigating mechanisms.application/pdfengThis work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.info:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://dx.doi.org/10.5271/sjweh.3860Employment conditionNon-standard employmentOcupational healthOMEGA-NETPosition paperPrecarious employmentSocial determinant of healthWorking conditioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
