This paper examines the relationship between the (a) level of job security experienced by Australian workers and mental health and well-being outcomes and (b) changes in the level of job security felt by Australian workers and changes in the level of mental health and well-being over time. Waves 1 and 2 of the HILDA Survey are used for this purpose. We find strong evidence that job security and mental health and well-being are positively related and that a worsening in job security significantly adversely affects mental health and well-being outcomes.
