Abstract

This paper uses a linear regression model to study the relationship between health on labor market performance. The paper adds health variables to explore the influencing factors of labor market performance in urban China under the more multidimensional concept of human capital. Using the China Nutrition Survey (CHNS) microdata in recent years, the impact of health on employment decisions is explored in urban China. The paper constructs an endogenous joint equation of health and labor force participation, and employs multiple physical characteristics of disability or frailty as instrumental variables for health indicators, effectively addressing the endogeneity and metric bias of the existence of health.
