Abstract
Employed workers suffer from general anxiety due to high rates of unemployment. In Southern Europe employees are increasingly unsatisfied (Ipsos, TNS-sofres). Sixty-eight percent of French workers state that the quality of their working life decreased between 2008 and 2012; among those who are 35 to 49 years old, 75 percent express discontent. Middle-aged workers, usually halfway through their career, suffer from chronic dissatisfaction.
