| Summary: | There is no doubt that the working world is a key factor in the well-being of a majority of the population. People between the ages of 16 and 65 years spend most of their time at the workplace. They must cope simultaneously with the stressors and strains of daily employment and private concerns. Reviewing the results of an international conference on health promotion at the workplace, this book tackles issues of interdisciplinary concern regarding occupational medicine, occupational psychology and occupational sociology. It puts emphasis on working conditions and work processes and their impact on health, particularly in the industrialized countries of Europe and North America. Both the conceptual as well as the feasible aspects of occupational health promotion are examined. |
