"There has been limited research on the experience of young people entering into work. Our study indicates that younger workers may experience a decline in mental health, unless they are entering into a job characterized by high psychosocial work qualities. This suggests that promoting high-quality psychosocial work for younger workers will protect and promote their mental health."
