This article found using search term "job and depression" via MCC's access to Health Source - Consumer Edition. Although the title is promising the 'mood disorder' referred to is bipolar disorder, not depression. While bipolar is closely related to depression, it is a different disorder. This source will probably not be useful in my intended discussion.

Found through MCC's portal to Medline, this article, (found using search term "depression and job") discusses the effectiveness of 4 methods for identifying reduced productivity in workers suffering from depression that show up to work. Although it may have one or two relevant points, the majority seems to be too focused on an irrelevant topic.
