Given that the ability to work is considered an important aspect of well-being and health status, we investigated the association between the loss of work ability and depression. We further examined the association stratified by employment status. Methods We used data from the Korea Welfare Panel Study. The dependent variable of the present study was depression, which is measured by the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale. Work ability transition from the previous year was divided into three categories: maintained, loss, and complete loss. A linear mixed-effects model was performed for the analysis.

Results The work ability loss group ( β  = 2.071, p  &lt; 0.0002) and the work ability completely loss group ( β  = 2.651, p  = 0.015) had higher depression scores compared to those who maintained their work ability from the previous year. Specifically, those who lost their work ability and their job ( β  = 3.685, p  = 0.0068) had the highest depression scores compared to those who maintained their work ability and job. Conclusions We found that those who lost their ability to work may be at risk of depression, and this finding was particularly prominent among those who also became unemployed. Therefore, psychological support is needed for these individuals to overcome the negative influence of the loss of work ability.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0340-0131</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1432-1246</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1007/s00420-016-1178-7</identifier><identifier>PMID: 27804038</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Berlin/Heidelberg: Springer Berlin Heidelberg</publisher><subject>Adult ; Aged ; Depression - psychology ; Earth and Environmental Science ; Employment ; Employment - psychology ; Environment ; Environmental Health ; Female ; Humans ; Linear Models ; Male ; Mental depression ; Middle Aged ; Occupational hazards ; Occupational Medicine/Industrial Medicine ; Original Article ; Rehabilitation ; Republic of Korea ; Risk Factors ; Work - psychology ; Work Capacity Evaluation ; Work ethic ; Young Adult</subject><ispartof>International archives of occupational and environmental health, 2017-01, Vol.90 (1), p.109-116</ispartof><rights>Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2016</rights><rights>International Archives of Occupational and Environmental Health is a copyright of Springer, 2017.</rights><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed><citedby>FETCH-LOGICAL-c475t-a05293d33c5a3fd38244844485ff79b3f0714f4893310b10492caffd3d7def523</citedby><cites>FETCH-LOGICAL-c475t-a05293d33c5a3fd38244844485ff79b3f0714f4893310b10492caffd3d7def523</cites></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><link.rule.ids>314,780,784,27924,27925</link.rule.ids><backlink>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27804038$$D View this record in MEDLINE/PubMed$$Hfree_for_read</backlink></links><search><creatorcontrib>Lee, Sang Ah</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Ju, Yeong Jun</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Han, Kyu-Tae</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Choi, Jae Woo</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Yoon, Hyo Jung</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Park, Eun-Cheol</creatorcontrib><title>The association between loss of work ability and depression: a focus on employment status</title><title>International archives of occupational and environmental health</title><addtitle>Int Arch Occup Environ Health</addtitle><addtitle>Int Arch Occup Environ Health</addtitle><description>Purpose Work-related factors are one of the known risk factors for depression.
