Job insecurity is just as stressful as unemployment, and,
contrary to the popular view, has hit the working class far harder
than professionals, according to a Cambridge University academic.
Not only have those at the bottom of the pile been forced to put
up with a widening pay gap, they have also suffered the "double
blow" of extreme anxiety over their employment prospects.
In a study to be published in the new year, Brendan Burchell of
the Cambridge Faculty of Social and Political Sciences warns of the
dangerous effects of this "polarisation" of the labour market on
society. He has calculated that manual workers are 60 per cent more
likely to move into insecure jobs than professionals.
