Synopsis

This book provides a comprehensive examination of the physical and mental health challenges facing workers today, focusing particularly on the social, technological, and political consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic. Delving into core perceptions of work culture, chapters also map out ways of thinking about wellbeing at work in the future to make workplaces healthier and more productive.

Presenting up-to-date research on how to improve wellbeing in the workplace, editors Paula Brough and Gail Kinman bring together leading international scholars to cover problems such as stress, burnout, workplace trauma, and boundary management. Contributing authors dissect complex factors in building a healthy and constructive workplace, including enhancing diversity and intersectionality; managing absenteeism and presenteeism; dealing with uncertainty during planned and emergent changes; and advancing digital technology. Special attention is paid to managing workers post-pandemic, considering increased working from home, and higher demand for services and support for mental health. The book also discusses changes in how the fundamental value of work is perceived and how it adds to, or detracts from, workers’ health and wellbeing.

Bringing together integrated approaches to managing wellbeing in the workplace, this book is an invaluable resource for researchers, scholars, and students in health psychology, occupational and business psychology, business and management, human resource management, organisational behaviour and occupational health.
