Dimensions of Work Ability. Results of the Health 2000 Survey] Jorma Järvisalo and Seppo Koskinen, editors Jorma Järvisalo and Seppo Koskinen, Ilmarinen, Juhani Raija Gould, Dimensions of Helsinki 2008 Helsinki Work Ability Results of the Health 2000 Survey Raija Gould, Juhani Ilmarinen, Jorma Järvisalo and Seppo Koskinen, editors Work ability is an essential prerequisite for well-being Ability Dimensions of Work and employment. This book describes the work ability of working-aged Finns on the basis of material from the extensive Health 2000 Survey. It focuses on the multidimensionality of work ability. How are health, work, expertise, and attitudes related to perceived work ability? Are the unemployed able to work, and does the work ability of older workers suffice for lengthening their careers? Furthermore, has the work ability of the Finnish population changed over the last few decades? By shedding light on these questions, the book provides a comprehensive information basis for everyone who is interested in the contents and promotion of work ability.

Comprehensive and up-to-date knowledge on different dimensions of work ability is essential for the promotion of longer careers, employment growth and wellbeing of the population of working age and beyond. This book provides baseline results on work ability of the Fin- nish Health 2000 Survey. It is the most comprehensive study on the population’s work ability carried out in Finland. The book is a product of a long and broad collaboration which started in the planning group of the research project already in the last millennium. The editors and authors of the book represent various organizations and disciplines as well as different angles of the research on work ability. The book is an abbreviated version of the full Finnish-language report “Työkyvyn ulottuvuudet” published in 2006. The editors and authors shortened the original Finnish-language texts. They were then translated into English by Georgianna Oja. The translated texts were further edited by the editors, authors and other experts. We wish to thank all those involved in this process. This report as well as the original Finnish-language report are avai- lable on the website of the Finnish Centre for Pensions at www.etk.fi. We hope that the book provides to international readers valuable information on work ability and a source of inspiration for many new research projects.

Good work ability increases wellbeing and supports employment. Knowledge on the different dimensions of work ability is necessary for regaining, maintaining and promoting work ability. The purpose of this book is to provide a comprehensive overview of the work ability of the Finnish population. The book is based on the extensive data of the Finnish Health 2000 Survey. The focus is on the age group of 30 to 64 years; young adults and over 64-year-olds are addressed more briefly. The number of the 30- to 64-year-old participants was 5,199. Most people of working age evaluated their work ability as good. Well- educated persons, white-collar workers and those living with families were most satisfied with their work ability whereas farmers, part-time workers and unem- ployed people often perceived their work ability to be limited. In all population groups work ability decreased with growing age. The oldest group of employed women, in particular, had many problems with work ability. Among young adults, the highest risks of limited work ability were unemployment, lack of sufficient basic education and mental problems. Health and work were the most important determinants of work ability. Of the diseases investigated in this study, depression and back disorders decreased the work ability of employed people the most. Yet, also among those with no long-term illnesses, limitations in work ability increased with age. Low physical work demands, support from supervisors and co-workers, control over one’s work, and possibilities of development at work were related to good work ability. A suitable job seemed to ensure maintenance of work ability also among older workers. In addition to work and health also expertise, skills and attitudes defined work ability. The relation of expertise to good work ability was, however, evident only among those with a higher education, a physically light job and good health. A comparison with the data of the Mini-Finland Survey that was carried out at the end of the 1970s showed that work ability of the population had improved over a period of two decades. The simultaneous change in the population’s edu- cational level explained the decrease in work ability limitations among women and for the most part among men.

Party positions were determined by expert judgement. For more information: https://www.chesdata.eu/ Three additional party positions, related to DI-specific questions, are included in the dataset. These positions were determined by experts involved in the 2019 edition of euandi after the elections took place. The inclusion of party positions in the “InDivEU – party preferences” is limited to the following issues: - General questions about the EU - Questions about EU policy - Questions about differentiated integration - Questions about party ideology 1 This includes all 27 member states of the European Union in 2020, plus the United Kingdom.

The concentrations of radioactive cesium and other gamma-emitting nuclides were determined on meat of moose8 and other cervids and also on small game in various parts of the country before or in the beginning of the hunting season. The most important radionuclides found in the samples were 134Cs and 137Cs. In addition to these, 131I was detected in the first moose meat samples in the spring, and 110"Ag in a part of the waterfowl samples. None of them was significant as far as the dietary intake of radionuclides is concerned. The transfer of fallout radiocesium to game meat was most efficient in the case of the arctic hare and inland waterfowl; terrestrial game birds and the brown hare belonged to the same category as moose.

We hope that the proposed country-specific and European progressive answers of this publication can be useful for wider parts of society than hate-based populism, as we also believe that they provide insights for Progressives to better respond to the problems and fears of those social groups that are most susceptible to the allure of populism. We want to offer in this book potential political answers to populism in a practical, solution-oriented and positive way. Contributors : Tamás BOROS, Maria FREITAS,
