Abstract

Les conditions de travail ont rapidement évolué au cours des dernières décennies dans les pays développés. Cette évolution s’est accompagnée de l’apparition de nouvelles formes d’organisation du travail s’avérant être sources de pénibilité et de risques pour la santé. Dans un contexte de vieillissement des populations, ces problèmes sont particulièrement préoccupants, en matière de santé, d’emploi et de financement des retraites. Cette étude s’intéresse aux liens existant entre l’organisation du travail et la santé des seniors (50 ans et plus). A partir des données de l’enquête SHARE 2004, nous montrons que plusieurs facteurs liés à l’organisation du travail - tels qu’une forte demande psychologique, un manque de latitude décisionnelle, une récompense reçue par le travail insatisfaisante, l’absence de soutien dans le travail mais aussi l’insécurité de l’emploi - sont corrélés à l’état de santé des seniors. Dès lors, l’organisation du travail comme la santé constituent des déterminants importants de la sortie d’activité des seniors.
