lest anyone doubt that a severe recession can have devastating effects on the psyches of affected workers here is some evidence worth taking very seriously thomas h maugh ii in a piece for the los angeles times link here reports on a center for disease control and prevention cdc study indicating that among working age people suicides increase during bad economic times and decline during more prosperous times everyone is familiar with stories of businessmen jumping to their deaths from window ledges during the great depression new data from the centers for disease control and prevention indicate that those stories sometimes viewed as apocryphal have a strong basis in fact the rate of suicides rises during times of economic hardship and declines in periods of prosperity this is no quick snapshot of the current recession the cdc study spans 80 years of data confirming reportage when reporter louis uchitelle began researching his book the disposable american layoffs and their consequences 2006 he did not anticipate that he would be drawn so persistently into the psychiatric aspect of layoffs but he soon understood that the emotional damage was too palpable to ignore for the suddenly unemployed a layoff is an emotional blow from which very few fully recover furthermore uchitelle found that layoffs damage companies by undermining the productivity of those who survive but feel vulnerable as well as the productivity of those who are laid off and get jobs again all lose some of the commitment trust and collegial behavior that stable employment or the expectation of stable employment normally engenders share this print opens in new window print share on facebook opens in new window facebook share on linkedin opens in new window linkedin share on x opens in new

a major artery in and out of boston and its traffic conditions basically control a commuter s state of mind during rush hours as reported by eric moskowitz i 93 commuters have faced a giant headache of a drive this week the surface of interstate 93 ruptured here yesterday for the second day in a row creating a gash large enough to swallow a car and snarling traffic for miles while the state performed emergency repairs that officials said will have the road open for this morning s commute this was not your ordinary pothole situation as further reported by moskowitz the vast holes that opened 25 feet apart on consecutive days were not the typical spring potholes bemoaned by new england drivers but were caused by something far more serious the decay of concrete and steel attributed to years of postponed maintenance it s not that simple or maybe it is we ve got nearly 41 million people on food stamps with unemployment levels remaining high and steady we have roads and bridges in this country that are badly in need of repair with safety and quality of life at stake among other things we need a public works program that puts people back on a payroll doing the vital work of rebuilding america s infrastructure the details are considerable and from a standpoint of public policy it s no easy fix but for starters let s look into matching our millions of unemployed with some

violence tags workplace health and safety workplace violence leave a comment on the afternoon of december 27 a 39 year old convenience store clerk named surendra dangol was killed after handing over the cash from his till to the gunman who decided to shoot him despite his apparent cooperation the murder occurred in the jamaica plain neighborhood of boston where i happen to live district attorney dan conley described the killing this way at about 3 00 the gunman entered the store produced a firearm and robbed surendra contrary to some reports there is no evidence to suggest that surendra resisted or fought back it s clear that surendra cooperated with his assailant he didn t act rashly or try to be a hero and for that good judgment he was shot to death in cold blood the gunman then left the store and fled as a passenger in a four door white sedan headed toward the jamaicaway this was a shocking crime not just because a man was killed but because he was gunned down for a small stack of bills that he gave up willingly surendra s death should outrage every person of faith and conscience in our community dangol was a native of nepal and he was saving up money to bring his wife and daughter to the united states although he had just started to work at the store customers who frequented it remarked that he was a friendly employee in other words he was a decent man who was trying to make a better life for his family universal hub a popular blog about boston life that i contribute to on occasion has the district attorney s full statement and a link to the store video released by the da s office of what happened that afternoon without the actual shooting if you watch the video you ll see that dangol was cooperating fully and did not appear to show any resistance or attitude for that he was shot workplace violence occurs in many ways but this story brings it home unfortunately homicide is one of the leading causes of workplace fatalities and workers in the retail service sector such as dangol are among those at risk as a fact sheet from the occupational safety and health administration observes workplace violence is violence or the threat of violence against workers it can occur at or outside the workplace and can range from threats and verbal abuse to physical assaults and homicide one of the leading causes of job related deaths however it manifests itself workplace violence is a growing concern for employers and employees nationwide link to the universal hub post and the store video http www universalhub com 2009
