Is Fixed-Term Employment a New Risk for Adverse Physical Working Conditions?

Saloniemi A., Virtanen P., Koivisto A. M.

International Journal of Occupational Safety and Ergonomics

2004

Vol. 10, No. 1

35--42

Relationships between employment type and the physical work environment were studied among blue-collar workers (n = 1,127). Based on survey data, we set out to compare the evaluations of environmental load and physical strain at work given by fixed-term (17% of all) and permanent workers. The type of employment was not related to environmental load. However, working on a fixed-term basis increased the risk of physical strain at work. Analyses revealed that this connection was evident only among fixed-term construction workers. The results did not support the much-cited view that the disintegration of standard employment has given rise to a new series of work environment problems. Such problems are concentrated in an area with a long tradition of work environment problems, that is, in the construction industry.
