Abstract
► Risk exposure, temporary employment and low-skill jobs have a substantial positive effect on the probability of disability. ► The presence of immigrants in the three unhealthy working conditions is relatively higher than that of natives. ► Immigrants are less likely to become disabled; in part because the impact of the work variables is smaller in their case. ► There are some differences among immigrants by region of origin, calling for caution to avoid over generalisation.
