Abstract in brief

  • The study investigates how organizational changes at work, like layoffs or management shifts, can increase the risk of heart problems such as ischemic heart disease and stroke among Danish public healthcare employees.
  • Using data from 14,788 employees over one year, the research found that employees in work units experiencing management changes or layoffs had a higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease compared to those in stable work environments.
  • The analysis showed that these organizational changes slightly increased the risk of cardiovascular issues, and this association was not significantly explained by perceived stress levels, suggesting other factors may contribute to the increased risk.
