Abstract: This article investigates the causal links between health and employment status. To distangle correlation from causality e ects, the authors leverage a French panel survey to estimate a bivariate dynamic probit model that can account for the persistence ef- fect, initial conditions, and unobserved heterogeneity. The results highlight the crucial role of all three components and reveal strong dual causality between health and em- ployment status. The ndings clearly support demands for better coordination between employment and health public policies.
