California labor market is strong, but workers in poor health don't benefit, UCSF study reports

t having lost one in the past year alone.

No groups were immune from job loss (13 percent of those with at least a bachelor's degree lost a job in the past three years), although workers with less than a high school degree were especially prone to job loss (26 percent lost a job during this time).

Just under ten percent of the state's workers (about 1.4 million) are in families that have household incomes less than 125 percent of the federal poverty level, despite their employment. Surprisingly, almost half of these workers are men. Almost two thirds are in their prime earning years of 25-54, and more than a third have at least some college education.
