摘要：This paper uses CHARLS 2011-2018 to estimate the long-term effect of unemployment on health. Individual health and working status are endogenous due to reverse causality and omitted variables. This paper exploits the exogenous and massive involuntary layoff during the reform of state-owned enterprises in China in 1990s to solve the problem. Fixed effect model and propensity score matching method with controlling variables reflecting initial social economic status, health and job conditions are also used to further moderate the bias. The results show that unemployment has great negative impact on health in versatile indicators even after 10 years. Workers laid-off in 1998-2003, those unemployed in their middle career stage, men, both spouses laid-off and those losing job in 56-60 suffers the harshest shock. Women do not demonstrate significant results. Unhealthy behaviors like smoking, lower health utilization especially physical examination and lower life satisfaction exhibit important channels of the impact. Our paper provides new perspectives about the influence of unemployment for policymakers.
