Taking into account temporal dimensions when analyzing the relationships between health and work: A diachronic journey - 2019.

This article offers a contribution to the diachronic analysis of the relationships between health and work, drawing upon a variety of research that differs in its disciplinary affiliation, its methodologies, and its interpretative models. A re-reading of this research enables us to highlight five types of “displacement” and leads us to requalify various “events” (accident, exposure, loss of employment, change in working conditions, occurrence of health disorders). We do so by examining how they “repeat” over the course of an individual’s working life, “accumulate” according to the positions occupied by individuals on the labor market, and “interweave,” by taking on meaning within personal stories, as well as how they are “shaped” toward possible categorizations, and finally “integrated” into the combined history of men and women at work and systems of production. In this way, diachronic research on the relationships between health and work can inform new avenues for action, beyond the dominance of “presentist” policies.
