Summary/Abstract: The amount of work stress faced by the employees has increased in the recent decades. This situation has negative health and psychosocial consequences. The Model Effort Reward Imbalance (ERI) has significantly contributed to the research on adverse health effects of work. This model examines the subjectively perceived level of balance between the effort and obtained rewards of workers and it analyses the medical and psychosocial consequences of this (im)balance. This paper introduces a description of the ERI model at theoretical, methodological, and empirical level.
