Abstract: This study examines how employment insecurity affects the subjective feeling of social integration. Using data from the German panel study PASS we compare unemployed individuals and those in either fixed-term, temporary agency or permanent employment. The main finding, according to which temporary workers feel less affiliated to society than permanent workers, is partially explained by economic and social resources. We also discuss alternative mechanisms, like reduced life-course predictability and social exclusion at the workplace. Moreover, there are differences by qualification: the more widespread fixed-term or temporary agency jobs are in a particular qualification group, the less detrimental is their effect on social integration.
